Micaiah’s actions became understandable later, when we discover that the Lord desires to deceive the king and lead him to his demise. The Lord even dispatches a lying spirit to deceive Ahab’s prophets. Micaiah can lie to the king because he realizes this lie is from the Lord . It is important to note that in v. 13 Micaiah only vows to speak the word of his God; he does not necessarily say he will tell the truth. In this case the Lord ’s word is deliberately deceptive. Only when the king adjures him to tell the truth (v. 15 ), does Micaiah do so.","source_note_position":2,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/2%20Chronicles%2018%3A14/2"}
