Exegesis
The sequential vav in vayimlokh {וַיִּמְלֹךְ | wăyyimlōḵ} ‘and he reigned’ introduces the dynastic transition, while the construct chain bə-nô taḥtāv {בְּנ֖וֹ תַּחְתָּיו | bə-nō taḥtāv} ‘his son in his place’ signals Hezekiah’s accession. The string of waw-consecutive verbs provides a cohesive narrative progression.
In context — 2 Kings 16:20
Ahaz completed his days, lay down with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David; and Hezekiah was enthroned in his place.
