1 Reis 22:11 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 22:11

And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made him horns of iron
Horns are emblems of power and might, and iron ones of greater strength still; the prophets sometimes made use of visible signs, to represent the things they prophesied of should come to pass, see ( Isaiah 20:2 Isaiah 20:3 ) ( Jeremiah 27:2 ) , and the same method this prophet took:

and he saith, thus saith the Lord; imitating the true prophets: with
these shall thou push the Syrians until thou hast consumed them:
Abarbinel thinks he had in view the blessing of Joseph by Moses, ( Deuteronomy 33:17 ) where he is compared to a bullock with horns; and these said to be the ten thousands of Ephraim, and the thousands of Manasseh; and Ahab being of the tribe of Joseph, and ruling in Ephraim and Manasseh, the prophet chose to make use of this emblem for his encouragement.

9 Então o rei de Israel chamou um eunuco, e disse: Traze-me depressa Micaías, filho de Inlá.
10 Ora, o rei de Israel e Jeosafá, rei de Judá, vestidos de seus trajes reais, estavam assentados cada um no seu trono, na praça � entrada da porta de Samária; e todos os profetas profetizavam diante deles.
11 E Zedequias, filho de Quenaaná, fez para si uns chifres de ferro, e disse: Assim diz o Senhor: Com estes ferirás os sírios, até que sejam consumidos.
12 Do mesmo modo também profetizavam todos os profetas, dizendo: Sobe a Ramote-Gileade, e serás bem sucedido; porque o Senhor a entregará nas mãos do rei.
13 O mensageiro que fora chamar Micaías falou-lhe, dizendo: Eis que as palavras dos profetas, a uma voz, são favoráveis ao rei; seja, pois, a tua palavra como a de um deles, e fala o que é bom.
