1 Kings 22:11 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Horns of iron; fit emblems of the power and victory of these two kings. The devil is God's ape, and the false prophets sometimes imitating the true, who when they declared God's mind by words, did also oftentimes confirm it by sensible signs. See Isaiah 20:2 Jeremiah 27:2. Thus saith the Lord, Heb. Jehovah; whose name he pretends, to gain the more credit and countenance to his words. See Poole on "1 Kings 21:7".

1 Kings 22:11

11 And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made him horns of iron: and he said, Thus saith the LORD, With these shalt thou push the Syrians, until thou have consumed them.
