1 Kings 3:15

3:15 Solomon then woke up and realized it was a dream. ¹  He went to Jerusalem, stood before the ark of the Lord’s covenant, offered up burnt sacrifices, presented peace offerings, ²  and held a feast for all his servants.

1 Kings 8:53

8:53 After all, ³  you picked them out of all the nations of the earth to be your special possession, ⁴  just as you, O sovereign Lord, announced through your servant Moses when you brought our ancestors out of Egypt.”

1 Kings 22:6

22:6 So the king of Israel assembled about four hundred prophets and asked them, “Should I attack Ramoth Gilead or not?” ⁵  They said, “Attack! The sovereign one ⁶  will hand it over to the king.”

¹ tn Heb “and look, a dream.”

² tn Or “tokens of peace”; NIV, TEV “fellowship offerings.”

³ tn Or “For.”

⁴ tn Heb “your inheritance.”

⁵ tn Heb “Should I go against Ramoth Gilead for war or should I refrain?”

⁶ tn Though Jehoshaphat requested an oracle from “the Lord” (יְהוָה, Yahweh), they stop short of actually using this name and substitute the title אֲדֹנָי (’adonai, “lord; master”). This ambiguity may explain in part Jehoshaphat’s hesitancy and caution (vv. 7-8). He seems to doubt that the four hundred are genuine prophets of the Lord.
