And it came to pass, as they sat at the table, that the word of the LORD came unto the prophet that brought him back:
Ver. 20. And it came to pass, as they sat at the table.] Where this prophet was eating and drinking against God's express charge, there doth he hear his doom denounced by the same mouth that had seduced him; Ut inde poenam veraciter sumeret unde culpam negligenter admisit, saith Gregory, that the punishment might answer to the sin.
That the word of the Lord came,] sc., By some internal inspiration, or prophetic ecstasy.
