Exegesis
The participle ketuvim {כְּתוּבִים | kə-tū-vīm} ‘are written’ paired with al-sefer divrei hayamim {עַל־סֵפֶר דִּבְרֵי הַיָּמִים | ʿal-sē-per dǐv-rê ha-yā-mîm} ‘in the book of chronicles’ specifies the archival source, and lemalchei Yisrael {לְמַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל | lə-mal-kĕ-̄ḥē Yiś-rā-ʾēl} ‘for the kings of Israel’ links the records to the Israelite monarchy. The triadic list of acts, deeds, and might, concluded by a rhetorical question, underscores the authoritative completeness of the royal annals.
In context — 2 Kings 13:8
And the rest of the deeds of Jehoahaz and all that he did, and his might —are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
