1 Kings 13:17 - Forerunner Commentary

1 Kings 13:17

15 Then he said to him, “Come home with me and eat bread.”

16 And he said, ^a“I cannot return with you nor go in with you; neither can I eat bread nor drink water with you in this place.

17 For I have been told ^aby the word of the Lord, ‘You shall not eat bread nor drink water there, nor return by going the way you came.’ ”

18 He said to him, “I too am a prophet as you are, and an angel spoke to me by the word of the Lord, saying, ‘Bring him back with you to your house, that he may eat bread and drink water.’ ” (He was lying to him.)

19 So he went back with him, and ate bread in his house, and drank water.
