Contextual Overview
1Now it happened after many days that the word of Yahweh came to Elijah in the third year, saying, "Go, show yourself to Ahab, and I will send rain on the face of the earth." 2So Elijah went to show himself to Ahab. Now the famine was severe in Samaria. 3And Ahab called Obadiah who was over the household. (Now Obadiah feared Yahweh greatly. 4And it happened that when Jezebel was cutting down the prophets of Yahweh, Obadiah took one hundred prophets and hid them by fifties in a cave, and sustained them with bread and water.) 5Then Ahab said to Obadiah, "Go through the land to all the springs of water and to all the valleys; perhaps we will find grass and keep the horses and mules alive, and not have to cut down some of the cattle." 6So they divided the land between them to pass through it; Ahab went one way by himself and Obadiah went another way by himself. 7Now it happened that as Obadiah was on the way, behold, Elijah met him, and he recognized him and fell on his face and said, "Is this you, Elijah my master?" 8And he said to him, "It is I. Go, say to your master, ‘Behold, Elijah is here.'" 9And he said, "What sin have I committed, that you are giving your servant into the hand of Ahab to put me to death? 10As Yahweh your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom where my master has not sent to search for you; and if they said, ‘He is not here,' he made the kingdom or nation swear that they could not find you.
