ran: Heb. went

the trench: 1 Kings 18:32, 1 Kings 18:38

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the water ran round about the altar,.... There being such a large effusion of it on it;

and he filled the trench also with water; which surrounded the altar, so that it seemed impracticable that any fire should kindle upon it; and this gave full proof and demonstration there could be no collusion in this matter.
