Exegesis

The prepositional phrase mimmennū {מִמֶּנוּ | mim-me-nū} ‘from him’ expresses separation, and the causal conjunction kî {כִּי | kî} introduces the reason clause.

The predicate azvū {עָזְבוּ | ‘az-vū} ‘they left’ links to the circumstantial expression bəmāḥalûyim rabbîm {בְּמַחֲלוּיִם רַבִּים | bə-mā-ḥă-lû-yîm rab-bîm} ‘in many diseases,’ describing Joash’s condition.
