וַיִּגַּשׁ֙ צִדְקִיָּ֣הוּ בֶֽן־כְּנַעֲנָ֔ה וַיַּכֶּ֥ה אֶת־מִיכָ֖יְהוּ עַל־הַלֶּ֑חִי וַיֹּ֕אמֶר אֵי־זֶ֨ה עָבַ֧ר רֽוּחַ־יְהוָ֛ה מֵאִתִּ֖י לְדַבֵּ֥ר אוֹתָֽךְ׃
Lalu Zedekia bin Kenaana mendekat, memukul Mikha pada pipinya, dan berkata, “Melalui jalan manakah roh Yang Mahakekal pergi dariku untuk berbicara kepadamu?”
Pesikta Rabbati
... Teach us o teacher: toward where should one who prays orient his heart? This is what our Rabbis taught: one should orient his heart toward the place of the Holy of Holies (Berachot 4:5). R’ Eliezer ben Yaakov says: if one is praying outside of the land, he should orient his heart to the land of Israel. If one is praying within the land of Israel, he should orient his heart to Jerusalem. If one is praying in Jerusalem, he should orient his heart to the Holy Temple. If one is praying in the Holy Temple, he should orient his heart to the Holy of Holies. R’ Avin the Levi said: “our neck is like the Tower of David, built as a model (talpiyot)…” (Song of Songs 4:4) What does talpiyot mean? The hill (tel) toward which all turns (peniyot) are directed. And after all this praise, it is written “Open your doors, O Lebanon, and let the fire consume your cedars.” (Zechariah 11:1) And so too they said “He has hurled fire into my bones…” (Lamentations 1:13) Israel said to Him: Master of the World! How long will it be like this? Did You not write in Your Torah “…the one who ignited the fire shall surely pay” (Exodus 22:5)? And You are the one who ignited the fire, as it says “From above He has hurled fire into my bones…” (Lamentations 1:13) You need to rebuild it and to console us, not at the hands of an angel but You in Your glory. The Holy One said to them: by your life, so I will do! As it says “The Lord is the builder of Jerusalem; He will gather the outcasts of Israel.” (Psalms 147:2) And I am the one who consoles you. From where do we learn this? From that which they read in the prophets “I, yea I am He Who consoles you…” (Isaiah 51:12)
Sifrei Devarim
(Devarim 18:19) "And it shall be, the man who will not heed My words": There are three whose death is at the hands of Heaven: one who suppresses his prophecy, like Yonah the son of Amittai; one who dismisses the words of a prophet, as did the colleague of Michah (viz. I Kings 20:35), and a prophet who transgresses his own prophecy, as did Iddo, viz. (I Kings 13:21). And there are three whose death is at the hands of beth-din: one who prophesies what he did not hear (from G-d), like Tzidkiyahu ben Cna'anah (viz. I Kings 22:24); and what was not spoken to him, like Chananiah ben Azur, who heard things from the mouth of Jeremiah, who prophesied in the upper marketplace and went and prophesied in the lower marketplace (viz. Jeremiah 28); and one who prophesies in the name of idolatry, i.e., "This is what the idol says" — even if what he said was consistent with the halachah, to rule unclean what was unclean, and clean what was clean — it being written (Ibid. 20) "But the prophet who shall presume, etc."
