Definitions for 1-kings 19:7
Clarke's 1-kings 19:7 Bible Commentary
The journey is too great for thee - From Beer-sheba to Horeb was about one hundred and fifty miles.
Barnes's 1-kings 19:7 Bible Commentary
Arise and eat ... - i. e., "Eat a second time, for otherwise the journey will be beyond thy powers." "The journey" was not simply a pilgrimage to Horeb, which was less than 200 miles distant, and might have been reached in six or seven days. It was to be a wandering in the wilderness, not unlike that of the Israelites when they came out of Egypt; only it was to last forty days instead of forty years.
Wesley's 1-kings 19:7 Bible Commentary
19:7 Angel of the Lord, &c. - He needed not to complain of the unkindness of men, when it was thus made up by the ministration of angels.Wherever God's children are, they are still under their father's eye.
