Exegesis
The verse begins with the emphatic particle ’akh {אַ֣ךְ | ˀă-ḵ} introducing contrast, immediately followed by the negation lo- {לֹֽא־ | lō-} and the perfect verb šāḇ {שָׁ֣ב | šā-ḇ} “he turned.”
In context — 2 Kings 23:26
Nevertheless, the LORD did not turn from His fierce anger , which burned against Judah because of all the provocations that Manasseh had provoked Him with.
