Exegesis
The accusative marker et-baasha {אֶת־בַּעְשָׁא | ʾet-ba-ʿā-šā} clearly marks Baasha as object, while the vav-prefixed imperfect veyyaaleh {וְיַעֲלֶ֖ה | wə-ya-‘ă-lêh} functions jussively (‘let him go up’), further specified by the spatial prepositional phrase me’alai {מֵעָלָֽי | mē-‘ǎ-lā-y} ‘from upon me.’ This progression from treaty declaration through gift-giving to treaty-breaking mirrors the formal structure of ancient Near Eastern diplomatic narratives.
In context — 2 Chronicles 16:3
There is a covenant between me and you, just as there was between my father and your father. Look, I have sent you silver and gold. Go and break your covenant with Baasha king of Israel so that he will withdraw from me.
