1 Reis 18:10

Listen to 1 Reis 18:10
10 Juro pelo nome do SENHOR, o teu Deus, que não há uma só nação ou reino aonde o rei, meu senhor, não enviou alguém para procurar por ti. E, sempre que uma nação ou reino afirmava que tu não estavas lá, ele os fazia jurar que não conseguiram encontrar-te.

1 Reis 18:10 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 18:10

As the Lord thy God liveth
Which is the form of an oath he thought fit to make, to ascertain the truth of what he was about to say: there is no nation or kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent to seek
thee;
which is either an hyperbolical expression, signifying he had sought for him in many places, and in every place he could think of; or it must be understood either of the ten tribes, which were as so many nations and kingdoms as they had been; or were more in the times of the Canaanites; or of the nations round about, that were in alliance with or tributary to the king of Israel: and when they said, he is not there, he took an oath of the kingdom and
nation that they found thee not;
which he might exact of his own subjects, but could not of other nations, unless they were free to it of themselves; or he might take it of their ambassadors or merchants that came into his land, of whom he inquired, and adjured them to tell him the truth.

1 Reis 18:10 In-Context

8 “Sou”, respondeu Elias. “Vá dizer ao seu senhor: ‘Elias está aqui’.”
9 “O que eu fiz de errado”, perguntou Obadias, “para que entregues o teu servo a Acabe para ser morto?
10 Juro pelo nome do SENHOR, o teu Deus, que não há uma só nação ou reino aonde o rei, meu senhor, não enviou alguém para procurar por ti. E, sempre que uma nação ou reino afirmava que tu não estavas lá, ele os fazia jurar que não conseguiram encontrar-te.
11 Mas agora me dizes para ir dizer ao meu senhor: ‘Elias está aqui’.
12 Não sei para onde o Espírito do SENHOR poderá levar-te quando eu te deixar. Se eu for dizer isso a Acabe e ele não te encontrar, ele me matará. E eu, que sou teu servo, tenho adorado o SENHOR desde a minha juventude.
