Isaiah is using In the year of the coming of the Tartan to Ashdod, when Sargon, the king of Assyria, sent him, and he fought against Ashdod and captured it to describe something that was ongoing at this time. This provides the background for other events he will describe that began to happen during this time. Connect this clause to the story in a way that makes it clear in your language that this clause is describing something that was ongoing in the background. Alternate translation: [During the time when the Tartan came to Ashdod, after Sargon, the king of Assyria, sent him, and he fought against Ashdod and captured it]
