1 Kings 16:20

Now the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his treason that he wrought, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

Cross-reference

1 Kings 16:5 uses the same formulaic conclusion for Baasha's reign: 'rest of acts written in chronicles'. This mirrors Zimri's epitaph.

1 Kings 16:14 similarly closes Elah's reign with the standard chronicles formula. Both are typical regnal summaries.

1 Kings 16:27 uses the same formula for Omri. This repeated pattern underscores the editorial style of Kings.

1 Kings 14:19 closes Jeroboam's reign with identical formula. Zimri's account follows the same pattern as Israel's first king.

1 Kings 15:31 uses the same formula for Nadab. Consistent with the chronicles formula found throughout Kings.

1 Kings 22:39 also uses the formula for Ahab, adding details. Still the same structural pattern for concluding a reign.
