Gill's Notes on the Bible
And there came forth a spirit,.... Not from the heavenly host on the right hand or the left, for they are pure and holy spirits, and impeccable, and cannot lie or deceive; but the evil spirit, Satan, the father of lies, the old deceiver, who came forth from his own place and his own company:
and stood before the Lord presented himself before him, as Satan did, Job 1:6,
and said, l will persuade him; or prevail upon him; evil spirits love to be employed in doing harm to men, they go about seeking whom they may devour. This could not be the spirit of Naboth, as the Jews say q, seeking revenge on Ahab; that was in a state of happiness, could not move from thence, and be capable of sinning.
q T. Bab. Sanhedrin, fol. 89. 1. & 102. 2. Targum in 2 Chron. xviii. 20.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A spirit - âThe spirit â - which some explain as âthe evil spiritâ - i. e. Satan; others as simply âthe spiritâ who should âpersuade.â
