1 Kings 20:23-26

23Meanwhile, the officers of King Benhadad of Aram told him, “Their god is a god of the hills. That is why they were stronger than we were. However, if we fight them on the plain, we will be stronger than they are.

24This is what we must do: Remove all of the kings from their positions, and substitute governors for them.

25Recruit an army with as many horses and chariots as the one which was defeated. Then, if we fight them on the plain, we will be stronger than they are.” He took their advice and followed it.

26Spring came, and Benhadad organized the Aramean army and went to Aphek to fight Israel.
