Exegesis
The infinitive construct kehachin {כְּהָכִ֞ין | kə-hāhîn} ‘when it was established’ introduces a temporal clause, paralleled by ukechezkato {וּכְחֶזְקָת֔וֹ | û-kə-ḥezqāṯō} ‘and when he became strong’, framing Rehoboam’s political stability.
In context — 2 Chronicles 12:1
And it came to pass, when the kingdom of Rehoboam was established and he had become strong, that he abandoned the law of the LORD , and all Israel was with him.
