Exegesis
The participle ketuvim {כְּתוּבִים | kə-tu-vim} ‘written’ leads into the locative phrase al sefer malkei Yehudah veYisrael {עַל־סֵפֶר מַלְכֵי־יְהוּדָה וְיִשְׂרָאֵל}, where sefer {סֵפֶר | se-fer} ‘book’ links to the construct malkei {מַלְכֵי | mal-kei} ‘kings of’ with Yehudah {יְהוּדָה | ye-hu-dah} and Yisrael {יִשְׂרָאֵל | yis-ra-el}. English order smooths the Hebrew’s formulaic tone while preserving the rhetorical force of the concluding question.
