Exegesis

The narrative then shifts to a maternal introduction with wə-šēm ʾimmô {וְשֵׁ֣ם אִמּ֔וֹ | wə-šēm ʾim-mô} ‘and the name of his mother,’ followed by the name zevidāh zevuddāh {זבידה זְבוּדָּ֥ה | ze-vî-dā ze-vu-ddā} and the genealogy baṯ-pəḏā-yāh mīn-rū-māh {בַת־פְּדָיָ֖ה מִן־רוּמָֽה | baṯ-pə-ḏā-yāh mīn-rū-māh} ‘daughter of Pedaiah from Rumah.’ Paratactic vav-coordination links age, reign, and lineage, typical of historical narrative syntax, while construct numerals and locative prepositional phrases convey chronological and geographical information precisely.
