Exegesis
The construct bemitzvat hamelekh {בְּמִצְוַת הַמֶּלֶךְ | bəmiṣwāṯ hamméleḵ} expresses royal authorization, while the locative bachatzar {בַּחֲצַר | baḥăṣar} plus the construct beit YHWH {בֵּ֥ית יְהוָֽה | bêṯ Yəhôwâ} situates the event in the temple precinct. This structure underscores the misuse of royal power within a sacred space.
