“When the king of Babylon’s army fought against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish, and against Azekah: for these defenced cities remained of the cities of Judah.”
The superscription notes the siege context and mentions 'Lachish and Azekah; for these were the only fortified cities of Judah that remained.' The mention of specific cities grounds the word in concrete military reality.
