Contextual Overview
1 And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and as well how he had slain all the prophets with the sword. 2 Then Jezebel send a messenger to Elijah, saying, So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I don't make your life as the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time. 3 And he was afraid, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beer-sheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his attendant there. 4 But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper-tree: and he requested for himself that he might die, and said, It is enough; now, O Yahweh, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers. 5 And he lay down and slept under a juniper-tree; and, look, an angel touched him, and said to him, Arise and eat. 6 And he looked and saw that there was at his head a cake baked on the coals, and a cruse of water. And he ate and drank, and laid down again. 7 And the angel of Yahweh came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat, because the journey is too great for you. 8 And he arose, and ate and drank, and went in the strength of that food forty days and forty nights to Horeb the mount of God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done,.... What miracles he had wrought, how that not only fire came down from heaven, and consumed the sacrifice, but even the stones and dust of the altar, and licked up great quantities of water in the trench around it; and that it was at his prayer that rain came down from heaven in such abundance, of which she was sensible; by all which he got the people on his side, so that it was not in his power to seize him and slay him; and this he said to clear himself, and make her easy:
and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword; the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal he had gathered to Carmel; the Targum calls them false prophets, but Ahab would scarcely use that epithet to Jezebel; as for the four hundred prophets of the grove, they were not present, and so not included. Jezebel knew they were safe, being with her, she not suffering them to go to Carmel.
