1 Reyes 19:1 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 19:1

And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done
What miracles he had wrought, how that not only fire came down from heaven, and consumed the sacrifice, but even the stones and dust of the altar, and licked up great quantities of water in the trench around it; and that it was at his prayer that rain came down from heaven in such abundance, of which she was sensible; by all which he got the people on his side, so that it was not in his power to seize him and slay him; and this he said to clear himself, and make her easy:

and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword;
the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal he had gathered to Carmel; the Targum calls them false prophets, but Ahab would scarcely use that epithet to Jezebel; as for the four hundred prophets of the grove, they were not present, and so not included. Jezebel knew they were safe, being with her, she not suffering them to go to Carmel.

1 Reyes 19:1 In-Context

1 Y Acab le cont贸 a Jezabel todo lo que El铆as hab铆a hecho y c贸mo hab铆a matado a espada a todos los profetas.
2 Entonces Jezabel envi贸 un mensajero a El铆as, diciendo: As铆 me hagan los dioses y aun me a帽adan, si ma帽ana a estas horas yo no he puesto tu vida como la vida de uno de ellos.
3 El tuvo miedo , y se levant贸 y se fue para salvar su vida; y vino a Beerseba de Jud谩 y dej贸 all铆 a su criado.
4 El anduvo por el desierto un d铆a de camino, y vino y se sent贸 bajo un enebro; pidi贸 morirse y dijo: Basta ya, SE脩OR, toma mi vida porque yo no soy mejor que mis padres.
5 Y acost谩ndose bajo el enebro, se durmi贸; y he aqu铆, un 谩ngel lo toc贸 y le dijo: Lev谩ntate, come.
