1 Reyes 13:16 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 13:16

And he said, I may not return with thee, nor go in with thee,
&c.] Into the city, and into his house in it, being such an idolatrous place, and especially being forbidden of God:

neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in this place;
he was resolute and determined to abide by the commandment of the Lord, though there is reason to believe that he was now both hungry and thirsty.

1 Reyes 13:16 In-Context

14 Entonces salió cabalgando en busca del hombre de Dios y lo encontró sentado debajo de un árbol grande. El profeta anciano le preguntó:
—¿Eres tú el hombre de Dios que vino de Judá?
—Sí, soy yo —le contestó.
15 Entonces le dijo al hombre de Dios:
—Acompáñame a mi casa y come algo.
16 —No, no puedo —respondió—. No se me permite comer ni beber nada en este lugar,
17 porque el Señor
me dio este mandato: “No comas ni bebas nada mientras estés allí y no regreses a Judá por el mismo camino”.
18 Sin embargo, el profeta anciano le dijo:
—Yo también soy profeta, como tú. Y un ángel me dio este mandato de parte del Señor
: “Llévalo a tu casa para que coma y beba algo”.
Pero el anciano le estaba mintiendo.
