Commentary

And the king of Israel said,.... To some of his officers: take Micaiah, and carry him back unto Amon the governor of the city: the chief magistrate under the king; a sort of sheriff, who had the care of malefactors, and of all committed to prison, from whom he was received by the messenger, and now sent back to him: and to Joash the king's son; who might be over his household, as sometimes the king's son was, Ch2 26:21 or might be viceroy while the king was without the city, and at the gate of it, and about to go to war.
