1 Reis 22:15

15 Quando ele chegou � presença do rei, este lhe disse: Micaías, iremos a Ramote-Gileade � peleja, ou deixaremos de ir? Respondeu-lhe ele: Sobe, e serás bem sucedido, porque o Senhor a entregará nas mãos do rei.

1 Reis 22:15 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 22:15

So he came to the king
Being introduced by the officer:

and the king said unto him, Micaiah, shall we go up against
Ramothgilead to battle, or shall we forbear?
the same question in the same words that was put to the other prophets, ( 1 Kings 22:6 ) , only there he uses the singular number, here the plural, including Jehoshaphat with him:

and he answered him, go, and prosper: for the Lord shall deliver [it]
into the hand of the king;
he answered not in the name of the Lord, saying, "thus saith the Lord", nor did he speak his own sense and in his own words, nor seriously, but by way of derision; he took up the words of the prophets, and bantered them; it is as if he should say, the prophets bid you go, and tell you that you shall "prosper", and that the city will be delivered into the king's hand; do as they direct you, and see what the issue will be, no doubt it will be good, since they are all agreed; but he delivered the above words with such gestures, and such a tone, and with a contemptuous smile in his countenance, which showed that he spoke not seriously, but sarcastically; and this the king plainly discovered, as appears by what follows.

1 Reis 22:15 In-Context

13 O mensageiro que fora chamar Micaías falou-lhe, dizendo: Eis que as palavras dos profetas, a uma voz, são favoráveis ao rei; seja, pois, a tua palavra como a de um deles, e fala o que é bom.

14 Micaías, porém, disse: Vive o Senhor, que o que o Senhor me disser, isso falarei.

15 Quando ele chegou � presença do rei, este lhe disse: Micaías, iremos a Ramote-Gileade � peleja, ou deixaremos de ir? Respondeu-lhe ele: Sobe, e serás bem sucedido, porque o Senhor a entregará nas mãos do rei.

16 E o rei lhe disse: Quantas vezes hei de conjurar-te que não me fales senão a verdade em nome do Senhor?

17 Então disse ele: Vi todo o Israel disperso pelos montes, como ovelhas que não têm pastor; e disse o Senhor: Estes não têm senhor; torne cada um em paz para sua casa.
