1 Rois 20:43 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 20:43

And the king of Israel went to his house heavy and displeased,
&c.] With the prophet for what he had said, and with himself for what he had done in letting Benhadad go; the Targum is, he was

``troubled and grieved,''

not so much for the sin he had committed, as for the punishment of it on him and his people:

and came to Samaria;
with a heavy heart, for the message of the prophet had spoiled the joy of his victory.

1 Rois 20:43 In-Context

41 Aussitôt le prophète ôta le bandeau de dessus ses yeux, et le roi d'Israël le reconnut pour l'un des prophètes.

42 Il dit alors au roi: Ainsi parle l'Eternel: Parce que tu as laissé échapper de tes mains l'homme que j'avais dévoué par interdit, ta vie répondra de sa vie, et ton peuple de son peuple.

43 Le roi d'Israël s'en alla chez lui, triste et irrité, et il arriva à Samarie.
