列王紀上 22:34 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 22:34

And a certain man drew a bow at a venture
Not aiming at the king of Israel, or knowing whereabout he was. In the Targum on ( 2 Chronicles 18:33 ) , this man is said to be Naaman, the general of the army of the king of Syria, and so Jarchi here; but though he did this in his simplicity, as the word signifies, without any intention to smite any particular person; yet God directed the arrow to the man he had marked for destruction, and neither his disguise, nor coat of mail, could secure from that:

and smote the king of Israel between the joints of the harness:
of which the pieces of armour on him were joined together, the higher and lower parts of it, the breastplate, and what covered the belly; and though these were joined as close as they were capable of joining them in those times, yet the arrow, guided by divine Providence, found its way into his body:

wherefore he said unto the driver of his chariot, turn thine hand;
or hands, with which he held the reins, and turn the horses on one side:

and carry me out of the host;
where the battle was hottest, to a place more remote and private, that he might have the wound examined, and the blood stopped, and return again, as it seems he did:

for I am wounded;
or rather "I am sick" ^F19, or ill, as the Targum; somewhat out of order, and therefore chose to retire a little while; not caring it should be known that he was smitten and wounded, lest his soldiers should be disheartened.

列王紀上 22:34 In-Context

32 車 兵 長 看 見 約 沙 法 ， 便 說 ： 這 必 是 以 色 列 王 ！ 就 轉 過 去 與 他 爭 戰 ， 約 沙 法 便 呼 喊 。

33 車 兵 長 見 不 是 以 色 列 王 ， 就 轉 去 不 追 他 了 。

34 有 一 人 隨 便 開 弓 ， 恰 巧 射 入 以 色 列 王 的 甲 縫 裡 。 王 對 趕 車 的 說 ： 我 受 了 重 傷 ， 你 轉 過 車 來 ， 拉 我 出 陣 罷 ！

35 那 日 ， 陣 勢 越 戰 越 猛 ， 有 人 扶 王 站 在 車 上 ， 抵 擋 亞 蘭 人 。 到 晚 上 ， 王 就 死 了 ， 血 從 傷 處 流 在 車 中 。

36 約 在 日 落 的 時 候 ， 有 號 令 傳 遍 軍 中 ， 說 ： 各 歸 本 城 ， 各 歸 本 地 罷 ！
