22:6
It seems that Ahab had reformed his school of prophets, for he brings in four hundred of them. They were prophets of baal. So Ahab’s repentance of the previous chapters does not seem to have been very deep.
22:7-9
Jehoshaphat knew that Ahab’s prophets were not men of God so asks Ahab if there is not a real prophet about. Ahab betrays his true character by saying there is one, Micaiah, but he doesn’t like him because “he never prophesies anything good about me”. Ahab does not want to hear the truth. Jehoshaphat scolds the king for saying that. Ahab then sends for Micaiah.
