Exegesis
The main clause is driven by malakh {מָ֠לַךְ | mālak} ‘became king,’ with yehoachaz ben-yehu {יְהוֹאָחָ֨ז בֶּן־יֵה֤וּא | yəhôʾāḥāz ben-yēhû} as the subject introduced after the verb, a common narrative pattern that highlights the accession event.
In context — 2 Kings 13:1
In the twenty-third year of Joash son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz son of Jehu became king over Israel in Samaria for seventeen years.
