Commentary

Commentary on 2 Chronicles 18:34

Theological / Devotional

Stayed himself up. That is, he propped himself. Ahab made a brave attempt to carry on, that his forces might go on to victory. He also hoped that he himself might not meet the fate Micaiah had predicted. He had occasion to think seriously of the prophet he had commanded to be shut up in prison till his safe return. But all was in vain. As God had said it would be, so it was. Ahab’s bravery could not atone for his folly in not believing a message from God. At even he died. Although Micaiah was in prison his prediction had been vindicated.
