Treasury of Scriptural Knowledge VERSE (7) -
1Ki 18:4; 19:10
SEV Biblia
Y el rey de Israel respondió a Josafat: Aun hay aquí un hombre por el cual podemos preguntar al SEÑOR; mas yo le aborrezco, porque nunca me profetiza cosa buena, sino siempre mal. Este es Micaías, hijo de Imla. Y respondió Josafat: No hable así el rey.
Matthew Henry Commentary
- Jehoshaphat's alliance with Ahab.
--This history we read in 1Ki 22. Abundant riches and honour give larg opportunities of doing good, but they are attended with many snares an temptations. Men do not know much of the artifices of Satan and the deceitfulness of their own hearts, when they covet riches with the ide of being able to do good with them. What can hurt those whom God wil protect? What can shelter those whom God will destroy? Jehoshaphat i safe in his robes, Ahab killed in his armour; for the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong. We should be cautious of entangling ourselves in the worldly undertakings of evil men; and stil more we should avoid engaging in their sinful projects. But, when the call upon him, God can and will bring his faithful people out of the difficulties and dangers into which they have sinfully run themselves He has all hearts in his hand, so that he easily rescues them. Blesse is the man that putteth his trust in the Lord _________________________________________________
