Exegesis
The reply under vayomru {וַיֹּאמְר֨וּ | wayyōmerû} ‘and they said’ identifies the site with anshei ha-ir {אַנְשֵׁ֣י הָעִ֗יר | ʾănšê hāʿîr} ‘men of the city’ pointing to ha-kever {הַקֶּ֤בֶר | hāqēver} ‘the grave’, then introduces the prophetic figure ish-ha-Elohim {אִישׁ־הָֽאֱלֹהִים֙ | ʾîš-hāʾĕlōhîm} ‘man of God’, and the provenance clause asher-ba mi-Yehudah {אֲשֶׁר-בָּ֣א מִֽיהוּדָ֔ה | ʾăšer-bāʾ miyyūdāh} ‘who came from Judah’.
In context — 2 Kings 23:17
And he said, “What is this monument that I see?” And the men of the city said to him, “It is the grave of the man of God who came from Judah, and he proclaimed these words that you have done against the altar at Bethel.”
