Melachim Alef 13:28

Melachim Alef 13:28 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 13:28

And he went and found his carcass cast in the way, and the ass
and the lion standing by the carcass
As before described: the lion had not eaten the carcass, nor torn the ass;
both which were very marvellous; as also that the ass should stand so quietly, and without fear, by the carcass along with the lion and not run away; but here both stayed till the prophet came to take care of the carcass, which shows the singular providence of God in this affair; and that though he chastised the man of God with a temporal judgment for his offence, yet he was dear to him, and even his carcass precious in his sight.

Melachim Alef 13:28 In-Context

26 And when the navi that brought him back from the derech heard thereof, he said, It is the Ish HaElohim, who defied the mouth of Hashem; therefore Hashem hath delivered him unto the aryeh, which hath mauled him, and slain him, according to the Devar Hashem, which He spoke unto him.

27 And he spoke to his banim, saying, Saddle me the chamor. And they saddled it.

28 And he went and found his nevelah cast down in the derech, and the chamor and the aryeh standing beside the nevelah; the aryeh had not eaten the nevelah, nor mauled the chamor.

29 The navi took up the nevelah of the Ish HaElohim, laid it upon the chamor, brought it back; and came to the Ir of the navi hazaken to mourn and to bury him.

30 And he laid his nevelah in his own kever; and they mourned over him, saying, Hoy (alas), achi (my brother)!
