Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Is there not: 2 Kings 3:11-13, 2 Chronicles 18:6, 2 Chronicles 18:7
Reciprocal: 2 Kings 22:13 - inquire Isaiah 30:2 - and have John 10:5 - General
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Jehoshaphat said, is there not here a prophet of the Lord besides, that we might inquire of him?] He suspected these to be false prophets, though he would not call them so; nor suggest that they were not the prophets of the Lord, because he would not affront Ahab, who had an opinion of them; and therefore asks, if there were no other that went under the character of a prophet of the Lord, that he might inquire of him for his further satisfaction.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Jehoshaphat was dissatisfied. These men - creatures of Ahab, tainted with the worship of calves if not with Baal-worship - had promised victory, but not in the name of Yahweh. Jehoshaphat, therefore, asked, “Is there not here a true prophet of Yahweh besides these 400 professed prophets?”
