The book containing the verse is called Words of Days, meaning Records of Events. It deals more fully with the kingdom of Judah than with the northern ten-tribe kingdom. Its first part runs parallel to the last part of Samuel. The verse stands in chapters 13-16, which cover the prosperous years of David's reign.
The verse belongs to the Chronicles genealogical record preserving the names of David's sons, illustrating the careful preservation of family and tribal records. The wider genealogy of Judah to which it belongs is especially significant because Christ came through that tribe.
