Exegesis
The vav conjunction in vekol yemei malkei Yisrael ūmalkei Yehudah {וְכֹל יְמֵי מַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וּמַלְכֵי יְהוּדָה | wə-kōl yəmê malăḵê yisrā’ēl ūmalăḵê yəhuḏāh} ‘and all the days of the kings of Israel and the kings of Judah’ extends the temporal comparison across both monarchies, reinforcing the unparalleled nature of this Passover.
In context — 2 Kings 23:22
For no Passover like this had been observed from the days of the judges who judged Israel, nor during all the days of the kings of Israel and the kings of Judah.
