Contextual Overview
1 And there continued three years without war between Syria and Israel. 2 But it came to pass, in the third year, that Jehoshaphat king of Judah went down unto the king of Israel. 3 And the king of Israel said unto his servants, Know ye that, ours, is Ramoth-gilead, - yet, we, are too idle to take it out of the hand of the king of Syria? 4 And he said unto Jehoshaphat, Wilt thou go with me to make war upon Ramoth-gilead? 5 And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, I am as thou art, my people are us thy people, my horses as thy horses. 6 Then said Jehoshaphat unto the king of Israel, - Seek, I pray thee, at once, the word of Yahweh. So the king of Israel gathered together the prophets, about four hundred men, and said unto them - Shall I go against Ramoth-gilead, to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said - Go up, that the Lord may deliver it into the hand of the king. 7 Then said Jehoshaphat, Is there not here a prophet of Yahweh, besides, - that we may seek, from him? 8 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, Besides, is a certain man, by whom we might seek Yahweh, but, I, hate him, for he is never moved to prophesy concerning me anything good, only evil, Micaiah, son of Imlah. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so. 9 Then the king of Israel called a certain courtier, - and said, Hasten Micaiah son of Imlah. 10 Now, the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat king of Judah, were sitting - each man upon his throne, having put on robes, in a level place, at the entrance of the gate of Samaria, - and, all the prophets, were being moved to prophesy before them;

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then the king of Israel called an officer,.... An eunuch, as the word is sometimes used, one of pages:
and said, hasten hither Micaiah the son of Imlah; who, as it seems from
1 Kings 22:26 was in prison, where perhaps Ahab had cast him for his last prophecy to him, and where he had lain ever since; and this gives a reason why he could so readily send for him, knowing where he was.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
An officer - More properly, as in the margin, âa eunuch.â Eunuchs seem to have been first introduced among the Israelites by David (1 Chronicles 28:1 note). They were a natural accompaniment of the seraglio of Solomon. The present passage is the first which shows that, after the separation of the kingdom, the kings of Israel employed them (compare 2 Kings 8:6; 2 Kings 9:32).
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Kings 22:9. The king of Israel called an officer — סר×ס saris, literally a eunuch; probably a foreigner, for it was not lawful to disgrace an Israelite by reducing him to such a state.
