Exegesis
Finally, lemalchei yisrael {לְמַלְכֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל | lə-mal-kéy yis-ra-éyl} ‘of the kings of Israel’ restricts the scope. English passive voice and phrase order mirror Hebrew structure to preserve emphasis on written preservation.
In context — 2 Kings 15:11
The rest of the acts of Zechariah are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
