1 Reis 18:3 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 18:3

And Ahab called Obadiah, which was the governor of his house,
&c.] Perhaps his steward: the Jews F13 take him to be Obadiah the prophet, who wrote the small prophecy that goes by his name:

(now Obadiah feared the Lord greatly:)
who, though he did not go up to Jerusalem to worship, which ceremonial service was dispensed with in him, yet he did not worship the calves, nor Baal, but served the Lord in a spiritual manner.

1 Reis 18:3 In-Context

1 Depois de muitos dias veio a Elias a palavra do Senhor, no terceiro ano, dizendo: Vai, apresenta-te a Acabe; e eu mandarei chuva sobre a terra.
2 Então Elias foi apresentar-se a Acabe. E a fome era extrema em Samária.
3 Acabe chamou a Obadias, o mordomo (ora, Obadias temia muito ao Senhor;
4 pois sucedeu que, destruindo Jezabel os profetas do Senhor, Obadias tomou cem profetas e os escondeu, cinqüenta numa cova e cinqüenta noutra, e os sustentou com pão e água);
5 e disse Acabe a Obadias: Vai pela terra a todas as fontes de água, e a todos os rios. Pode ser ser que achemos erva para salvar a vida dos cavalos e mulas, de maneira que não percamos todos os os animais.
