Exegesis

The vav-consecutive Piel imperfect vayenashel {וַיְנַשֵּׁ֥ל | way-ya-naš-šēl} “and he expelled” intensifies the removal of hayehudim {הַיְהוּדִ֖ים | ha-yə-hû-ḏîm} “the Judeans” from meʾelot {מֵֽאֵיל֑וֹת | mē-ʾê-lōṯ}, with the prepositional meʾelot indicating origin.

In context2 Kings 16:6

At that time, Rezin, king of Aram, restored Eilat to Aram and expelled the Judeans from Eilat. Then the Arameans and the Edomites came to Eilat and dwelt there until this day.
