1 Kings 19:7 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Arise and eat, because the journey is too great for thee Above thy strength; now especially, when thou art faint, weary, and fasting. God knows what he designs us for, though we do not; what services, what trials; and will take care for us, when we, for want of foresight, cannot for ourselves, that we be furnished for them with grace sufficient. He that appoints what the voyage shall be, will victual the ship accordingly.

1 Kings 19:7

7 And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee.
