Introduction
Jehoshaphat joins affinity with Ahab, king of Israel, 2 Chronicles 18:1 , 2 Chronicles 18:2 ; who invites him to assist him in the war against the Syrians, to which Jehoshaphat agrees, 2 Chronicles 18:3 . They consult the prophets concerning the success of the war; and all, except Micaiah, promise Ahab victory, 2 Chronicles 18:4-17 . Micaiah relates his vision concerning the lying spirit in the mouth of Ahab's prophets, 2 Chronicles 18:18-22 . Zedekiah, a false prophet, opposes Micaiah; and Micaiah is put in prison, 2 Chronicles 18:23-27 . Both the kings go against the Syrians; the confederate armies are defeated, and the king of Israel slain, 2 Chronicles 18:28-31 .
