Exegesis
Jeroboam son of Nebat serves as the topic, with the resumptive pronoun vehu {וְהוּא | wə·hū} linking to the locative bemitsrayim {בְּמִצְרַיִם | bə·miṣrāyim} ‘in Egypt’.
In context — 2 Chronicles 10:2
And it happened when Jeroboam son of Nebat heard and he was in Egypt , where he had fled from before Solomon the king, that Jeroboam returned from Egypt.
