Study note
Setting — The narrator addresses the record of King Jehoahaz of Israel, placing his reign between his army's destruction by Aram and his burial in Samaria.
The words — יֶתֶר דִּבְרֵי (Yeter divrei) literally means "the rest of the matters," while גְבוּרָתוֹ (gevurato) translates to "his might."
The thread — This archival formula appears in 1 Kings 14:19 alongside other royal chronicles, while 1 Kings 14:29 points to the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
Why it lands — The text asserts that Jehoahaz's full deeds and strength are preserved in an official royal record, directing attention to documented history rather than oral tradition.

Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
