Micaiah

Portrait of Micaiah

Micaiah the prophet withdrew with the aged Ananias, Joel, Habakkuk and many of the faithful who believed in the ascension into heaven, settling on the mountain. He was smitten and reproved by Hezekiah son of Chandni, who in the days of Ahab had taught the four hundred prophets of Baal and was connected to the false prophet Belchira of Bethlehem. Micaiah son of Amada had been reproved by Ahab, cast into prison, and was with Zedekiah the prophet under Ahaziah son of Ahab in Samaria.

They persuaded Ahaziah the king and slew Micaiah. When the king later summoned all the prophets, Micaiah sat on his right hand with the aged Ananias, Joel and Josab.
