Lièwángjìshang 18:45 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 18:45

And it came to pass in the mean while
That the servant was gone with the message to Ahab, and Ahab was getting ready his chariot:

that the heaven was black with clouds and wind, and there was a great
rain;
which all sprung from the cloud like a man's hand; and so we are told ^F11, that sometimes a little cloud called the ox's eye is seen on a mount of the Cape of Good Hope, called Tafesbery, when the sky is most serene, and the sea quiet; which is at first scarce so big as a barley corn, and then as a walnut; and presently it extends itself over the whole surface of the mountain:

and Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel;
as fast as he could.
