Exegesis
The adversary’s control is specified in the prepositional phrase bə-yād melekh ʾAššur {בְּיַד מֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר | bə-yād me-lekh ʾaš-šur}. The structure contrasts persuasive rhetoric with blunt warning, highlighting Hebrew emphasis through the infinitive absolute and concessive conjunctions.
Root and etymology
y-dyod–dalet
“hand, power”
In context — 2 Kings 18:30
