Contextual Overview

¹⁵ When Micaiah came to Ahab, the king asked him, "Micaiah, should we attack Ramoth in Gilead or not?" Micaiah answered, "Attack and win! The Lord will hand them over to you." ¹⁶ But Ahab said to Micaiah, "How many times do I have to tell you to speak only the truth to me in the name of the Lord ?" ¹⁷ So Micaiah answered, "I saw the army of Israel scattered over the hills like sheep without a shepherd. The Lord said, ‘They have no leaders. They should go home and not fight.'" ¹⁸ Then Ahab king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "I told you! He never prophesies anything good about me, but only bad." ¹⁹ But Micaiah said, "Hear the message from the Lord : I saw the Lord sitting on his throne with his heavenly army standing near him on his right and on his left. ²⁰ The Lord said, ‘Who will trick Ahab into attacking Ramoth in Gilead where he will be killed?' "Some said one thing; some said another. ²¹ Then one spirit came and stood before the Lord and said, ‘I will trick him.' ²² "The Lord asked, ‘How will you do it?' "The spirit answered, ‘I will go to Ahab's prophets and make them tell lies.' "So the Lord said, ‘You will succeed in tricking him. Go and do it.'" ²³ Micaiah said, "Ahab, the Lord has made your prophets lie to you, and the Lord has decided that disaster should come to you." ²⁴ Then Zedekiah son of Kenaanah went up to Micaiah and slapped him in the face. Zedekiah said, "Has the Lord 's spirit left me to speak through you?"

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the king said unto him, how many times shall I adjure thee,.... Not that he had as yet adjured him at all, or not till now; but he asks him how often he must be obliged to do it; and now he adjures him once for all, that he might not be forced to repeat it:

that thou tell me nothing but that which is true in the name of the Lord? for he observed he did not speak in the name of the Lord before, and what he said was not in a serious but ludicrous manner, and not to be regarded as truth.
