1 Reis 18:38 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 18:38

Then the fire of the Lord fell
An extraordinary fire from God out of heaven, as the effects of it show:

and consumed the burnt sacrifice;
as it had done in former instances, ( Leviticus 9:24 ) ( Judges 6:21 ) ( 1 Chronicles 21:26 ) ( 2 Chronicles 7:1 2 Chronicles 7:3 ) , and besides this, which is still more extraordinary,

and the wood, and the stones, and the dust;
of the altar, thereby signifying that even such were not to be used any more:

and licked up the water that was in the trench;
around the altar, see ( 1 Kings 18:32 ) .

1 Reis 18:38 In-Context

36 À hora do sacrifício, o profeta Elias colocou-se à frente do altar e orou: “Ó SENHOR, Deus de Abraão, de Isaque e de Israel, que hoje fique conhecido que tu és Deus em Israel e que sou o teu servo e que fiz todas estas coisas por ordem tua.
37 Responde-me, ó SENHOR, responde-me, para que este povo saiba que tu, ó SENHOR, és Deus e que fazes o coração deles voltar para ti”.
38 Então o fogo do SENHOR caiu e queimou completamente o holocausto, a lenha, as pedras e o chão, e também secou totalmente a água na valeta.
39 Quando o povo viu isso, todos caíram prostrados e gritaram: “O SENHOR é Deus! O SENHOR é Deus!”
40 Então Elias ordenou-lhes: “Prendam os profetas de Baal. Não deixem nenhum escapar!” Eles os prenderam, e Elias os fez descer ao riacho de Quisom e lá os matou.
