Prophet Against Prophet: The Role of the Michaiah Narative In the Development of Early Prophetic Tradition (1 Kings 22)
Simon J De VriesPaperback 1981-06-01
Publisher Description
Throughout the history of the Israelite kingdoms there were prophets who prophesied nothing but favorable consequences for the actions of their political leaders. Opposing them were prophets who drew a distinction between the will of Yahweh for his people and the opportunistic aims of the monarchs. In the Micaiah narratives of 1 Kings 22 are seen two early states in the development of this ideological conflict. Simon John De Vries examines thoroughly these early stages in order to find and understand the root causes of the conflict that fled finally to national ruin.
