1 Kings 22:20

And the Lord said, Who shall persuade [Same word in Exodus 22:16 , Hebrews; 14:15 ; 16:5 ; Proverbs 1:10 , etc.; in all of which instances it is translated "entice." Compare with this question that of Isaiah 6:8 .] Ahab, that he may go up and fan at Ramoth-Gilead? [The meaning is that Ahab's death in battle had been decreed in the counsels of God, and that the Divine Wisdom had devised means for accomplishing His purpose.] And one said on this manner, and another said [Heb. saying ] on that manner. [Bähr again quotes from Peter Martyr: " Innuit varies providentiae Dei modos, quibus decreta sua ad exitum perducit, " and adds that in this vision "inner and spiritual processes are regarded as real phenomena, nay, even as persons."]
