the ashes away: 1 Kings 20:38, 2 Samuel 13:19, Job 2:8, Jeremiah 6:26
Reciprocal: 1 Kings 19:10 - I only 1 Kings 22:8 - yet one man Proverbs 28:4 - but Amos 2:11 - I raised
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he hasted, and took away the ashes from his face,.... Took off the linen cloth from his eyes, unveiled or unmasked himself:
and the king of Israel discerned him, that he was of the prophets; he knew him again, having seen him once or twice before; otherwise there could be nothing in his face that could discover him to be a prophet, rather he was to be known by his habit.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
He was of the prophets - Josephus and others conjecture that this prophet was Micaiah, the son of Imlah (but compare 1 Kings 20:13 note).
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Kings 20:41. Took the ashes away — He took the bandage from off his eyes: see on 1 Kings 20:38. It was no doubt of thin cloth, through which he could see, while it served for a sufficient disguise.
