SCRIPTURE

"And Micaiah said, Behold, thou shalt see on that day, when thou shalt go into an inner chamber to hide thyself." — 2 Chronicles 18:24 (ASV)

Thou shalt see.Thou art to see, or, destined to see, on that day when thou shalt enter a chamber in a chamber to hide thyself (lĕhç c hâbçh”, correctly. Kings, lĕhç c hâbçh). Zedekiah’s further history is not recorded—an indication, as Ewald justly observes, that the original narrative contained much more than the present extract from it.
