1 KINGS 20:34 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And Ben–hadad said unto him, The cities, which my father took from thy father, I will restore; and thou shalt make streets for thee in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria. Then said Ahab, I will send thee away with this covenant. So he made a covenant with him, and sent him away.”
Then a certain man of the sons of the prophets said unto his fellow in the word of the LORD, Smite me, I pray thee. And the man refused to smite him — A prophet requests another prophet to strike him as a sign. The second prophet refuses. The phrase initiates a prophetic parable about Ahab's failure to obey God's purposes in warfare.
