Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

And as they sat at table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet that brought him back:

the word of the Lord

1 Kings 13:23 And when he had eaten and drunk, he saddled his ass for the prophet, whom he had brought back.

, where they are now translated, {whom he had brought back}; and where they cannot be translated otherwise. This being the case, we are at liberty to consider the words of the Lord as delivered to the {true} prophet, thus brought back; and then the sentence is pronounced by God himself, calling to him out of heaven, and in

Genesis 22:11 And behold, an angel of the Lord from heaven called to him, saying: Abraham, Abraham. And he answered: Here I am.

. and that this doom was thus pronounced by God, not by the false prophet, we are assured in verse

26. `The Lord hath delivered him unto the lion, according to the word of the Lord, which HE spake unto him.' Josephus [and also the {Arabic}] asserts, that the sentence was declared by God to the {true} prophet.

Numbers 23:5,16 And the Lord put the word in his mouth, and said: Return to Balac, and thus shalt thou speak. . . .

Numbers 24:4,16-24 The bearer of the words of God hath said, he that hath beheld the vision of the Almighty, he that falleth, and so his eyes are opened: . . .

Matthew 7:22 Many will say to me in that day: Lord, Lord, have not we prophesied in thy name, and cast out devils in thy name, and done many miracles in thy name?

John 11:51 And this he spoke not of himself: but being the high priest of that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation.

1 Corinthians 13:2 And if I should have prophecy and should know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I should have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
