Exegesis
The verse begins with the vav-consecutive prefix combining with the Niphal imperfect in vayivaʿaṣ {וַיִּוָּעַ֗ץ | way-yiv-vā-ʿaṣ} ‘and he consulted’, which propels the narrative forward.
In context — 2 Chronicles 25:17
Then Amaziah the king of Judah consulted , and he sent to Joash son of Jehoahaz son of Jehu king of Israel, saying, “Come, let us meet face to face .”
