Melachim Alef 13:10 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 13:10

So he went another way, and returned not by the way that he
came to Bethel.

Melachim Alef 13:10 In-Context

8 And the Ish HaElohim said unto HaMelech, If thou wilt give me half thine bais, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat lechem nor drink mayim in this makom;

9 For so was it charged me by the Devar Hashem, saying, Eat no lechem, nor drink mayim, nor return again by the same derech that thou camest.

10 So he went another derech, and returned not by the derech that he came to Beit-El.

11 Now there dwelt a navi zaken (old prophet) in Beit-El; and his banim came and told him kol hama’aseh that the Ish HaElohim had done that day in Beit-El: the devarim which he had spoken unto HaMelech, them they told also to their av.

12 And their av said unto them, What derech went he? For his banim had seen on what derech the Ish HaElohim, who came from Yehudah, went.
