We have another rerun in 1 Kings 22. Micaiah prophecies against Ahab and he is killed just as in 2 Chronicles 18. Ahaziah succeeds his father as King of Israel. Jehoshaphat dies as well.
Jehoshaphat from Judah and Ahab Israel form an alliance through marriage in 2 Chronicles 18. The prophet Micaiah is called for, even though Ahab said he never said anything good about him. They are planning an attack on Aram. Originally Micaiah told them to go.
His actual prophecy tells Ahab that he is being lied to by the other prophets. As was common, this prophet is imprisoned until they return from battle. Ahab goes into battle in disguise, but he is killed by an accidental shot.
