Ahab said, "And I will let you go with this covenant." So he made a covenant and let him go.
This wicked king Ahab not only worshiped false gods, and persecuted God's people, but even given the opportunity would not seek the counsel of the True God. So sure, of himself, he would not give the Lord a second thought or consideration in making this momentous decision regarding the enemy of God's people. We're told here, as a matter of fact, that he made a peace treaty and let the culprit go. This would come back to haunt him we'll see further on in the chapter. So, it becomes a lesson to us, as in all things, we give God a say in our life decisions.
