Exegesis
The interrogative particle hamibal‘adei {הֲמִבַּלְעֲדֵ֣י | hă-mîḇal-’ă-ḏē} ‘apart from’ creates an absolutive question that underscores the necessity of divine presence.
In context — 2 Kings 18:25
Now, was it apart from the LORD that I went up against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, “Go up against this land and destroy it.”
