Contextual Overview
28 So the king of Israel and King Jehoshaphat of Judah went up against Ramoth-gilead. 29 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "I will dress up to look like someone else and go into battle. But you wear your king's clothing." So the king of Israel dressed up to look like someone else, and they went into battle. 30 Now the king of Syria had told the captains of his war-wagons, "Do not fight with small or great, but only with the king of Israel." 31 So when the captains of the war-wagons saw Jehoshaphat, they said, "It is the king of Israel." And they turned to fight against him. But Jehoshaphat cried out, and the Lord helped him. God made them go away from him. 32 When the captains of the war-wagons saw that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back from going after him. 33 But a certain man happened to shoot an arrow and hit the king of Israel in a joint of the battle-clothes. So the king said to the man on the war-wagon, "Turn around, and take me out of the battle. For I am hurt." 34 The battle was hard that day. And the king of Israel stood up against the sides of his war-wagon in front of the Syrians until the evening. When the sun went down, he died.
