to Ramoth-Gilead
2 Chronicles 18:5
18:5 to Ramoth-Gilead. This city had been one of the cities of refuge designated by Joshua, but had fallen under control of Ben-hadad and the Syrians. Jehoshaphat agreed that it should be recaptured for Israel, even though for better reasons than those of Ahab. This perhaps played a part in his willingness to align his army with that of wicked king Ahab.
