After many days, the LORD’s word came to Elijah, in the third year, saying, “Go, show yourself to Ahab; and I will send rain on the earth.” 另见: 路加福音 4:25雅各伯书 5:17列王纪上 17:1Elijah went to show himself to Ahab. The famine was severe in Samaria. 另见: 肋未纪 26:26圣咏集 51:4耶肋米亚 14:18Ahab called Obadiah, who was over the household. (Now Obadiah feared the LORD greatly; 另见: 厄斯德拉下 7:2列王纪上 16:9玛窦福音 10:28for when Jezebel cut off the LORD’s prophets, Obadiah took one hundred prophets, and hid them fifty to a cave, and fed them with bread and water.) 另见: 列王纪上 18:13玛窦福音 10:40-42玛窦福音 25:40Ahab said to Obadiah, “Go through the land, to all the springs of water, and to all the brooks. Perhaps we may find grass and save the horses and mules alive, that we not lose all the animals.” 另见: 耶肋米亚 14:5-6岳厄尔 1:18哈巴谷 3:17So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it. Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself. 另见: 耶肋米亚 14:3As Obadiah was on the way, behold, Elijah met him. He recognized him, and fell on his face, and said, “Is it you, my lord Elijah?” 另见: 列王纪下 1:6-8列王纪上 11:29创世纪 50:18He answered him, “It is I. Go, tell your lord, ‘Behold, Elijah is here!’” 另见: 列王纪上 18:3伯多禄前书 2:17-18罗马人书 13:7He said, “How have I sinned, that you would deliver your servant into the hand of Ahab, to kill me? 另见: 列王纪上 17:18列王纪上 18:12出谷纪 5:21As the LORD your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom where my lord has not sent to seek you. When they said, ‘He is not here,’ he took an oath of the kingdom and nation that they didn’t find you. 另见: 列王纪上 17:1圣咏集 12:7-8列王纪上 17:12Now you say, ‘Go, tell your lord, “Behold, Elijah is here.”’ 另见: 列王纪上 18:8列王纪上 18:14It will happen, as soon as I leave you, that the LORD’s Spirit will carry you I don’t know where; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he can’t find you, he will kill me. But I, your servant, have feared the LORD from my youth. 另见: 宗徒大事录 8:39列王纪下 2:16厄则克耳 8:3Wasn’t it told my lord what I did when Jezebel killed the LORD’s prophets, how I hid one hundred men of the LORD’s prophets with fifty to a cave, and fed them with bread and water? 另见: 列王纪上 18:4玛窦福音 25:35得撒洛尼前书 2:9-10Now you say, ‘Go, tell your lord, “Behold, Elijah is here”.’ He will kill me.” 另见: 玛窦福音 10:28Elijah said, “As the LORD of Armies lives, before whom I stand, I will surely show myself to him today.” 另见: 列王纪上 17:1列王纪上 18:10圣咏集 24:8-10So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him; and Ahab went to meet Elijah. When Ahab saw Elijah, Ahab said to him, “Is that you, you troubler of Israel?” 另见: 若苏厄书 7:25列王纪上 21:20宗徒大事录 17:6He answered, “I have not troubled Israel, but you and your father’s house, in that you have forsaken the LORD’s commandments and you have followed the Baals. 另见: 编年纪下 15:2列王纪上 9:9耶肋米亚 2:19Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel to Mount Carmel, and four hundred fifty of the prophets of Baal, and four hundred of the prophets of the Asherah, who eat at Jezebel’s table.” 另见: 列王纪上 16:33若苏厄书 19:26列王纪下 2:25So Ahab sent to all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together to Mount Carmel. 另见: 列王纪上 22:9Elijah came near to all the people, and said, “How long will you waver between the two sides? If the LORD is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him.” The people didn’t say a word. 另见: 玛窦福音 6:24若苏厄书 24:15格林多前书 10:21-22Then Elijah said to the people, “I, even I only, am left as a prophet of the LORD; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred fifty men. 另见: 列王纪上 19:10列王纪上 19:14列王纪上 20:13Let them therefore give us two bulls; and let them choose one bull for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under; and I will dress the other bull, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under it. You call on the name of your god, and I will call on the LORD’s name. The God who answers by fire, let him be God.” All the people answered, “What you say is good.” 另见: 列王纪上 18:38编年纪上 21:26肋未纪 9:24Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, “Choose one bull for yourselves, and dress it first, for you are many; and call on the name of your god, but put no fire under it.” They took the bull which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, “Baal, hear us!” But there was no voice, and nobody answered. They leaped about the altar which was made. 另见: 耶肋米亚 10:5格林多前书 12:2格林多前书 8:4At noon, Elijah mocked them, and said, “Cry aloud, for he is a god. Either he is deep in thought, or he has gone somewhere, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he sleeps and must be awakened.” 另见: 依撒意亚 41:23圣咏集 78:65-66训道篇 11:9They cried aloud, and cut themselves in their way with knives and lances until the blood gushed out on them. 另见: 肋未纪 19:28申命纪 14:1马尔谷福音 5:5When midday was past, they prophesied until the time of the evening offering; but there was no voice, no answer, and nobody paid attention. 另见: 出谷纪 29:41出谷纪 29:39弟茂德后书 3:8-9Elijah said to all the people, “Come near to me!”; and all the people came near to him. He repaired the LORD’s altar that had been thrown down. 另见: 编年纪下 33:16列王纪上 19:14列王纪上 19:10Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the LORD’s word came, saying, “Israel shall be your name.” 另见: 列王纪下 17:34创世纪 32:28创世纪 35:10With the stones he built an altar in the LORD’s name. He made a trench around the altar large enough to contain two seahs of seed. 另见: 哥罗森书 3:17出谷纪 20:24-25撒慕尔纪上 7:9He put the wood in order, and cut the bull in pieces and laid it on the wood. He said, “Fill four jars with water, and pour it on the burnt offering and on the wood.” 另见: 创世纪 22:9民长纪 6:20肋未纪 1:6-8He said, “Do it a second time;” and they did it the second time. He said, “Do it a third time;” and they did it the third time. 另见: 格林多后书 8:21格林多后书 4:2The water ran around the altar; and he also filled the trench with water. 另见: 列王纪上 18:32列王纪上 18:38At the time of the evening offering, Elijah the prophet came near and said, “LORD, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word. 另见: 列王纪上 18:29出谷纪 3:6列王纪下 19:19Hear me, LORD, hear me, that this people may know that you, LORD, are God, and that you have turned their heart back again.” 另见: 达尼尔 9:17-19路加福音 1:16-17厄则克耳 36:25-27Then the LORD’s fire fell and consumed the burnt offering, the wood, the stones, and the dust; and it licked up the water that was in the trench. 另见: 肋未纪 9:24编年纪上 21:26编年纪下 7:1When all the people saw it, they fell on their faces. They said, “The LORD, he is God! The LORD, he is God!” 另见: 列王纪上 18:24编年纪下 7:3列王纪上 18:21Elijah said to them, “Seize the prophets of Baal! Don’t let one of them escape!” They seized them; and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and killed them there. 另见: 民长纪 4:7申命纪 18:20申命纪 13:5Elijah said to Ahab, “Get up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of abundance of rain.” 另见: 列王纪上 18:1列王纪上 17:1训道篇 9:7So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he bowed himself down on the earth, and put his face between his knees. 另见: 路加福音 6:12列王纪上 18:19-20若苏厄书 7:6He said to his servant, “Go up now and look toward the sea.” He went up and looked, then said, “There is nothing.” He said, “Go again” seven times. 另见: 哈巴谷 2:3路加福音 18:7路加福音 18:1On the seventh time, he said, “Behold, a small cloud, like a man’s hand, is rising out of the sea.” He said, “Go up, tell Ahab, ‘Get ready and go down, so that the rain doesn’t stop you.’” 另见: 路加福音 12:54约伯传 8:7米该亚 1:13In a little while, the sky grew black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel. 另见: 列王纪上 21:1列王纪上 18:39-40列王纪下 9:16The LORD’s hand was on Elijah; and he tucked his cloak into his belt and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel. 另见: 厄则克耳 3:14厄则克耳 1:3列王纪下 3:15

列王纪上 18:1
Ver. 1. Year of his sojourning at Sarephta. As other six months elapsed before the drought was removed, it is probable that Elias had spent them at Carith. S.
Jam. v. 17. C. --- Earth. God is pleased to withdraw his chastisement, though the guilty were not yet reclaimed. Salien.
↑ 1列王纪上 18:2
Ver. 2. Samaria, and the vicinity. The people could procure corn from a distance. But Achab is solicitous to find grass, v. 5.
↑ 2列王纪上 18:3
Ver. 3. Abdias. Some suppose that he was the fourth of the minor prophets, or the husband of the Sunamitess, (4 K. iv.) or the third of the captains, who were ordered by Ochozias to seize Elias, 4
K. i. 13. T. --- But this is uncertain. He took care of the persecuted prophets, (ver. 4. 13,) judging it better to obey God than man. C.
↑ 3列王纪上 18:6
Ver. 6. Himself. So Providence ordered it, that the prophet might declare his sentiments to him freely. H. --- Achab would go in person, another way, that he might not be imposed upon. He was more solicitous for his cattle than for his subjects. M.
↑ 6列王纪上 18:7
Ver. 7. Face, to shew him a religious veneration, due to the servant of God. W.
↑ 7列王纪上 18:9
Ver. 9. Kill me, as an impostor, or an accomplice of thy escape, if afterwards thou shouldst disappear, v. 12. C.
↑ 9列王纪上 18:10
Ver. 10. An oath of every kingdom, adjuring all his neighbours to tell if they knew any thing about Elias. H. --- Achab wished to make him restore rain, or to punish him for the refusal. C. ---
How stupid he must have been, not to perceive that God was punishing him!
H. --- Elias must have kept himself very retired, not to be discovered at Sarephta, which was so near, (C.) and where Jezabel's father reigned. But God could render him invisible, even upon the high road, when he went thither. H.
↑ 10列王纪上 18:12
Ver. 12. Spirit. Abdias supposed that the prophet had been transported to some unknown country, (C.) as he was afterwards to paradise. His disciples imagined, by a violent wind. 4 K. ii.
16. H. --- Thus the spirit of the Lord took away Philip, (Acts viii. 39,) and conducted Jesus into the desert. Mat. iv. 1. Mar. i. 12. C. --- Infancy. This he mentions, that the prophet might take pity on him. M.
↑ 12列王纪上 18:13
Ver. 13. A hundred. Hence we may judge how numerous they were. These prophets were not perhaps all inspired: but they had such at their head; and spent their time in working and in the divine praises. They were the salt and light of the earth, the pillars of the true religion, against whom Jezabel bent all her fury, during the first years of the drought. C.
↑ 13列王纪上 18:14
Ver. 14. Kill me. He had expressed this fear twice before. Elias perceiving how much he was agitated, confirmed him with an oath. H.
↑ 14列王纪上 18:16
Ver. 16. Meet Elias, out of respect, (Abulensis) or rather to upbraid him.
↑ 16列王纪上 18:17
Ver. 17. Troublest Israel? Thus the wicked esteem those disturbers of the public repose, who will not suffer them to go on in their wickedness unmolested. Thus the Jews complain of Jesus Christ. Luke xxiii. 5. Such a war is better than a false peace: and Achab, in fact, proclaims the praise of Elias, who strove by easy means to make the people open their eyes and return to their God. C.
↑ 17列王纪上 18:18
Ver. 18. House. Your impiety has brought on this scourge. I only denounced it.
Salien.
↑ 18列王纪上 18:19
Ver. 19. Fifty, attached to Baal, and fed by the king; while the prophets of the groves, or of Astarte, lived at the queen's expense. They imitated the lives of the true prophets, to delude the people. --- Carmel was long after famous fo the worship of Apollo, who was the same with Baal, or the sun. Jos. xix. 26. C. ---
No mention is made of rain: but it was understood that it would be given, when the people should assemble to hear God's determination. M. --- Achab durst not therefore refuse to convoke them. H.
↑ 19列王纪上 18:21
Ver. 21. Sides: sometimes adoring God; at other times the devil. C. --- Such an expostulation ought to be made to those who are indifferent about religion. W.
--- You cannot serve two masters. C. --- They wished to unite the service of both, foolishly supposing that there might be many gods; as some, at present assert that many religions may be pleasing to heaven. H. --- A word, not knowing the drift of his proposal. But, as they might perhaps rely that they considered Baal also as a god, Elias puts this to the test of a miracle; being convinced that God would never suffer the devils to prevail on this occasion.
Salien. --- They might otherwise have brought down fire, as they will do in the days of Antichrist. Apoc. xiii. 13. M.
↑ 21列王纪上 18:22
Ver. 22. I. Heb. repeats "I," to make the contrast more striking. Elias alone was present, in this assembly, as the prophet of the Lord. H. --- He knew that Abdias had preserved 100: but they were concealed. --- Men. The other 400 of Jezabel did not appear.
↑ 22列王纪上 18:24
Ver. 24. Call ye. He does not order them to invoke idols; but challenges them to prove their divinity, if they can. --- By fire. On such trying occasions, it is not tempting God to ask for a miracle. God had given this proof of fire repeatedly.
Gen. xv. 17. Lev. ix. 24. 2 Par. vii. 1. He will restrain the devil's power, to confirm the truth. Mark ult. W.
↑ 24列王纪上 18:26
Ver. 26. That they. Heb. "which he (Achaz) had made;" (C.) or, "which was made." H. --- The altar of Elias was erected afterwards, v. 30. The prophets of Baal acted in a foolish manner, (C.) as if in jest, but really despairing of success. H. --- The pagans were accustomed to dance around their altars: ---
Pingues spatiatur ad aras. Æneid iv. --- and some would translate, "near the altar." We might apply to these prophets, the verses of Horace:---
Dedit risusque jocosque,
Dum, flamma sine, thura liquescere limine sacro
Persuadere cupit: credat Judæus Apella
Non ego. Sat. i. 5.
↑ 26列王纪上 18:27
Ver. 27. Talking to some of his prophets, (C.) or in deep contemplation. Mon. ---
An inn. Sept.
"giving oracles;" or, "he is pursuing." Pagnin.
↑ 27列王纪上 18:28
Ver. 28. Blood. Strange infatuation! which has nevertheless prevailed in many pagan mysteries and countries. Thus were Bellona, Cybele, the Syrian goddess, &c. honoured and appeased. C.
--- God prohibits this fury. Deut. xiv. 1. The devil always endeavours to destroy or to injure man.
M.
"Ipsa bipenne suos cædit violenta lacertos,
Sanguineque effuso spargit inepta deam." Tibullus.
↑ 28列王纪上 18:29
Ver. 29. Prophesying, "acting like fools;" (Chal.) performing their superstitious rites, and singing the praises of their god, &c. C. --- Sacrifice, by Elias, who had assigned all the morning to Baal's prophets. Perhaps he waited till the time of the evening sacrifice. Ex. xxix. 38. M.
↑ 29列王纪上 18:30
Ver. 30. Down, by the false prophets, whose fury the people now repressed. T.
--- The altar might have been erected, under the judges, lawfully. C.
↑ 30列王纪上 18:31
Ver. 31. Twelve stones, (as Ex. xxiv. &c.) intimating that he acted in the name of all; (M.) and in order that all Israel might return with one heart to the service of God. H. --- The prophet did not follow his own spirit in erecting this altar. C.
↑ 31列王纪上 18:32
Ver. 32. Furrows. Heb. "of two (sathayim) measures of seed." These furrows Elias filled with water, to impede the natural activity of fire, and to shew the miracle in a more striking light; (H.) as also to convince all that there was no deceit. An author quoted, under the name of S.
Chrysostom, says that the pagans had sometimes subterraneous passages, by which they kindled the wood on the altar, as if by miracle, ita ut multi decepti ignem illum cœlestem esse existiment.
ap. Surium iv.
↑ 32列王纪上 18:34
Ver. 34. Time. So that the wood was less disposed to catch fire. M.
↑ 34列王纪上 18:37
Ver. 37. Again. This effect he hoped for from the miracle.
↑ 37列王纪上 18:38
Ver. 38. Trench, as if it had been of an inflammable nature. Julian himself was forced to acknowledge this miracle. "This, says he, once happened under Moses, and, a long while after, again under Elias, the Thesbite."
↑ 38列王纪上 18:40
Ver. 40. Cison, at the foot of Carmel. Adrichomius. --- Achab durst not protect his prophets, being confounded by the evidence of the miracle, (M.) and the unanimity of the people's cry. H.
--- Killed them, by God's inspiration, (C.) as impostors, who had deluded the people, and were worthy of death.
↑ 40列王纪上 18:41
Ver. 41. Sound. It will as surely come, as if you heard it falling. H.
↑ 41列王纪上 18:42
Ver. 42. Knees, in fervent and humble prayer. God made his servant wait some time before he granted his request, that he might not give way to vanity. The people were not present, so that there was no danger of their being scandalized. M.
↑ 42列王纪上 18:44
Ver. 44. Sea, the Mediterranean, which could be seen from Carmel. H. --- Hence the rain commonly came in that country. Luke xii. 54.
↑ 44列王纪上 18:45
Ver. 45. Jezrahel, where Achab had a palace. C. xxi. 1. C. --- He stopped for shelter, as he had not time to reach Samaria. M.
↑ 45列王纪上 18:46
Ver. 46. Before Achab, notwithstanding the king was drawn by horses, (C.) and Elias was advanced in years. C. xix. 4. M. --- The invigorating spirit gave him such strength and agility, (H.) as Jezrahel was 12 or 15 leagues, (C.) or about 36 miles, from Carmel. In the Levant, impostors still run very swiftly before the chariots of princes, to imitate Elias. C.
