Exegesis

The locative bə-bēṯ še-mēš {בְּבֵית שֶׁמֶשׁ | bə-bēt še-mēš} ‘at the house of Shemesh’ and the relative clause ʾă-šer lə-yə-hûḏāh {אֲשֶׁר לִיהוּדָה | ʾă-šer lə-yə-hū-dāh} ‘which belongs to Judah’ specify territorial belonging. English ordering preserves the sequential vav narrative and the idiomatic engagement.

In context2 Kings 14:11
