1 Re 20:28

Allora l’uomo di Dio si avvicinò al re d’Israele, e gli disse: "Così dice l’Eterno: Giacché i Siri hanno detto: L’Eterno è Dio de’ monti e non e Dio delle valli, io ti darò nelle mani tutta questa gran moltitudine; e voi conoscerete che io sono l’Eterno".

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And there came a man of God,.... The same as before, 1 Kings 20:13 or had come p before the little army went out to meet the Syrians; though he might go to Ahab when encamped, for his encouragement:

and spake unto the king of Israel, and said, thus saith the Lord, because the Syrians have said, the Lord is God of the hills, but he is not God of the valleys; 1 Kings 20:13- :.

therefore will I deliver, all this great multitude into thine hand; not for Ahab's sake would the Lord do this, who does not appear thankful to God for the former victory, nor to be reformed from his idolatry, and the better for it, but for the honour of his own name, which had been blasphemed by the Syrians:

and ye shall know that I am the Lord; both of hills and valleys, the omnipotent Jehovah, the only true God.

p ויגש "accesserat", Vatablus.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

A man of God - Evidently not the prophet who had spoken to Ahab the year before 1 Kings 20:13, 1 Kings 20:22. He probably dwelt in the neighborhood of Samaria. Now that Ahab and his army had marched out into the Trans-Jordanic territory, another prophet, a native probably of that region, announced God’s will to them.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 28. Because the Syrians have said — God resents their blasphemy, and is determined to punish it. They shall now be discomfited in such a way as to show that God's power is every where, and that the multitude of a host is nothing against him.
