Verse 21 is found in chapter 22 of 1 Kings. Micaiah explains a vision in which the Lord permits a lying spirit to influence Ahab’s prophets in order to lead him toward judgment. The king rejects the warning and orders Micaiah imprisoned. The passage is complex and uses the language of the heavenly council to explain how the judgment announced against Ahab will come through his own decisions. The king remains responsible because he has deliberately rejected the true word.
