Contextual Overview

1 And, behold, a man of God had come from Judah to Bethel, by the Word of Jehovah, and Jeroboam was standing by the altar to burn incense. 2 And he cried against the altar, by the Word of Jehovah, and said, Altar! Altar! So says Jehovah, Behold, a son shall be born to the house of David, his name Josiah, and he shall sacrifice on you the priests of the high places who are burning incense on you, and they shall burn the bones of man on you. 3 And on that day he gave a sign, saying, This is the sign that Jehovah has spoken, Behold, the altar is torn, and the ashes that are on it poured out. 4 And it happened when the king heard the saying of the man of God which he had cried against the altar in Bethel, Jereboam put out his hand from the altar, saying, Seize him. And his hand which he putout against him withered, and he was not ableto bring it back to him. 5 And the altar was torn, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign that the man of God had given by the Word of Jehovah. 6 And the king answered and said to the man of God, Please entreat the face of Jehovah your God, and pray for me, and my hand shall come back to me. And the man of God entreated the face of Jehovah, and the hand of the king came back to him, andit was as at the beginning. 7 And the king spoke to the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh yourself, and I will give you a gift. 8 And the man of God said to the king, If you would give me the half of your house, I would not go in with you, nor will I eat bread, nor will I drink water in this place. 9 For so He commanded me by the Word of Jehovah, saying, You shall not eat bread nor drink water, nor turn back in the way that you have come. 10 And he went on another way, and did not turn back in the way in which he came into Bethel.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So he went another way, and returned not by the way that he came to Bethel. Neither ate nor drank with the king, though that is not expressed; nor did he go back the same way he came; but in each particular observed the divine command, and was obedient to it.
