1 Reyes 18:4 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 18:4

For it was so, when Jezebel cut off the prophets of the Lord,
&c.] Or slew them, as the Targum; put them to death some way or another; such as were brought up in the schools of the prophets, trained up in religious exercises, and instructed others therein:

that Obadiah took one hundred prophets, and hid them by fifty in a
cave;
fifty in one cave and fifty in another; for there were large caves in the land of Israel capable of holding such a number, and many more, see ( 1 Samuel 22:1 ) ( 24:3 ) and fed them with bread and water; which in this time of famine were very acceptable; though these may be put for all the necessaries of life.

1 Reyes 18:4 In-Context

2 Y El铆as fue a mostrarse a Acab. Y el hambre era intensa en Samaria.
3 Y Acab llam贸 a Abd铆as que era mayordomo de la casa. (Y Abd铆as tem铆a en gran manera al SE脩OR;
4 pues sucedi贸 que cuando Jezabel destruy贸 a los profetas del SE脩OR, Abd铆as tom贸 a cien profetas y los escondi贸 de cincuenta en cincuenta en una cueva, y los sustent贸 con pan y agua.)
5 Entonces Acab dijo a Abd铆as: Ve por la tierra a todas las fuentes de agua y a todos los valles; quiz谩 hallaremos hierba y conservaremos con vida los caballos y los mulos, y no tendremos que matar parte del ganado.
6 Y dividieron la tierra entre ellos para recorrerla; Acab se fue solo por un camino, y Abd铆as se fue solo por otro.
