Exegesis
The construct chain et-am {אֶת־עַ֣ם | ʾeṯ-ʿam} ‘(direct object) people of’ + haaretz {הָאָ֔רֶץ | hāʾāreṣ} ‘the land’ marks the source population, and the closing infinitive latet2 {לָתֵ֖ת | lāṯēṯ} ‘to give’ plus leparoh2 {לְפַרְעֹ֥ה | lə-parʿōh} and nekho {נְכֹֽה׃ | nəkōh} frames the entire extraction as a funnel back to the Egyptian king.
In context — 2 Kings 23:35
Jehoiakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharaoh; however, he assessed the land to give the silver at Pharaoh’s word, and he exacted the silver and the gold from the people of the land, each man according to his valuation, to give to Pharaoh Necho.
