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 tinha ido chamar Micaías lhe disse: “Veja, todos os outros profetas estão predizendo que o rei terá sucesso. Sua palavra também deve ser favorável”.

14 Micaías, porém, disse: “Juro pelo nome do SENHOR que direi o que o SENHOR me mandar”.

15 Quando ele chegou, o rei lhe perguntou: “Micaías, devemos ir à guerra contra Ramote-Gileade, ou não?”Ele respondeu: “Ataca, e serás vitorioso, pois o SENHOR a entregará nas mãos do rei”.

16 O rei lhe disse: “Quantas vezes devo fazer você jurar que irá me dizer somente a verdade em nome do SENHOR?”

17 Então Micaías respondeu: “Vi todo o Israel espalhado pelas colinas, como ovelhas sem pastor, e ouvi o SENHOR dizer: ‘Estes não têm dono. Cada um volte para casa em paz’.”
