1 Kings 22:4

4 He said to Jehoshaphat, "Will you go with me to battle at Ramoth-gilead?" Jehoshaphat replied to the king of Israel, "I am as you are; my people are your people, my horses are your horses."

1 Kings 22:4 Meaning and Commentary

Ver. 4 And he said unto Jehoshaphat, wilt thou go with me to battle
to Ramothgilead?
&c.] This affair being lately canvassed at the council board, and very much on Ahab's mind, he puts this question to Jehoshaphat, his visitor, relation, and ally; wisely considering that his own forces were small, and that to have such an auxiliary might be of great advantage to him:

and Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, I am as thou art, my people
as thy people, my horses as thy horses;
meaning, that he and his soldiers, foot and horse, were at his service.

1 Kings 22:4 In-Context

2 But in the third year King Jehoshaphat of Judah came down to the king of Israel.
3 The king of Israel said to his servants, "Do you know that Ramoth-gilead belongs to us, yet we are doing nothing to take it out of the hand of the king of Aram?"
4 He said to Jehoshaphat, "Will you go with me to battle at Ramoth-gilead?" Jehoshaphat replied to the king of Israel, "I am as you are; my people are your people, my horses are your horses."
5 But Jehoshaphat also said to the king of Israel, "Inquire first for the word of the Lord."
6 Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred of them, and said to them, "Shall I go to battle against Ramoth-gilead, or shall I refrain?" They said, "Go up; for the Lord will give it into the hand of the king."
