1 Kings 18:10

OLD TESTAMENTNEW TESTAMENT

As the LORD your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom, where my lord has not sent to seek you: and when they said, He is not there; he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they found you not.

Verse 9 Read Chapter 18 Verse 11

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849

An oath of every kingdom, adjuring all his neighbours to tell if they knew any thing about Elias. (Haydock) Achab wished to make him restore rain, or to punish him for the refusal. (Calmet) How stupid he must have been, not to perceive that God was punishing him! (Haydock) Elias must have kept himself very retired, not to be discovered at Sarephta, which was so near, (Calmet) and where Jezabel's father reigned. But God could render him invisible, even upon the high road, when he went thither. (Haydock)
