Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

A reason is given why the false prophets should not be heeded: They have not stood in the counsels of Jehovah (an image from ministers present in a standing posture at councils of Eastern kings) (compare Jer 23:22; Job 15:8). The spiritual man alone has the privilege (Gen 18:17; Psa 25:14; Amo 3:7; Joh 15:15; Co1 2:16).
