Exegesis
The prepositional phrase al-sefer {עַל־סֵ֛פֶר | ʿal-sēfer} anchors the claim in an archival source, and the stacked construct relationships divrei {דִּבְרֵ֥י | divrê} + hayamim {הַיָּמִ֖ים | hayyāmîm} + lemalkei {לְמַלְכֵ֥י | lə-malkê} + Yisrael {יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ | yiśrāʾēl} identify the register as the royal annals for Israel’s kings; English renders these chains as possessive “of” phrases to preserve the source relationships while keeping the rhetorical question intact.
In context — 2 Kings 13:12
