Context of 2 Chronicles 18:27
25The king of Israel then said, “Send Micaiah back to Amon, the governor of the city, and to Joash, the prince. 26Say, ‘This is what the king says: Put this man in prison, and feed him nothing but bread and water until I return home safely.’ ” Micaiah said, “If you really do come back safely, then the Lord wasn’t speaking through me. Pay attention to this, everyone!” 28So the king of Israel and King Jehoshaphat of Judah went to Ramoth in Gilead. 29The king of Israel told Jehoshaphat, “I will disguise myself and go into battle, but you should wear your royal robes.” So the king of Israel disguised himself and went into battle.
