Exegesis
The verse advances by a chain of preterite wayyiqtol forms, moving the action forward in quick succession: vayifnu {וַיִּפְנ֣וּ | wayyip̄nû} ‘and they turned’ introduces Judah’s sudden reorientation, and vehinneh {וְהִנֵּ֨ה | wə-hinnēh} ‘and behold’ marks an abrupt discovery.
In context — 2 Chronicles 13:14
And Judah turned, and behold , the battle was in front of them and behind; and they cried out to the LORD , and the priests sounded the trumpets.
