Exegesis
The conjunction vegām {וְגַ֤ם | wəgām} ‘and also’ links to the hiphil hēʿēvîr {הֶעֱבִ֣יר | hēʿēvîr} ‘he caused to pass,’ with direct-object marker ʾet {אֶת | ʾet} marking bənē {בְּנוֹ | bənô} ‘his son.’
In context — 2 Kings 16:3
He walked in the way of the kings of Israel and also made his son pass through the fire like the abominations of the nations whom the LORD had driven out before the sons of Israel.
