23 aTherefore look! The Lord has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these prophets of yours, and the Lord has declared disaster against you.”  
24 Now Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah went near and astruck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, b“Which way did the spirit from the Lord go from me to speak to you?”  
25 And Micaiah said, “Indeed, you shall see on that day when you go into an ainner chamber to hide!”  
26 So the king of Israel said, “Take Micaiah, and return him to Amon the governor of the city and to Joash the king’s son;
27 and say, ‘Thus says the king: “Put this fellow in aprison, and feed him with bread of affliction and water of affliction, until I come in peace.” ’ ”

1 Kings 22:24-25

Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah went near, and smote Micaiah on the cheek—The insolence of this man, the leader of the false prophets, seems to have been provoked by jealousy at Micaiah's assumed monopoly of the spirit of inspiration. This mode of smiting, usually with a shoe, is both severe and ignominious. The calm reply of the Lord's prophet consisted in announcing the fate of the false prophets who suffered as the advisers of the disastrous expedition.
