1 KINGS CHAPTER 13



A prophet of Judah prophesieth against the altar at Beth-el: Jeroboam offering him violence, his hand withereth; and, at the prayer of the prophet, is restored, 1Ki_13:1-6. He refusing the king’s entertainment, departeth from Beth-el, 1Ki_13:7-10. An old prophet seducing him, bringeth him back, 1Ki_13:11-19. He is for it reproved of God by the old prophet; and is slain by a lion; and buried by the old prophet; who confirmeth his prophecy, 1Ki_13:20-32. Jeroboam’s obstinacy, 1Ki_13:33,34.



A man of God; a holy prophet. By the word of the Lord; by Divine inspiration and command.
