They replied
This phrase indicates a response, suggesting a dialogue or interaction. In the context of ancient Israel, communication often carried significant weight, especially when it involved prophetic messages. The Hebrew root for "replied" (עָנָה, 'anah) implies an answer or response, often with a sense of responsibility or duty. This sets the stage for the gravity of the message being conveyed.

A man came to meet us
The "man" here is Elijah, a prophet of God. In the Hebrew tradition, prophets were seen as messengers of God, often delivering messages that challenged the status quo. Elijah's sudden appearance and direct approach underscore the urgency and divine authority of his message. Historically, prophets like Elijah were pivotal in guiding Israel back to faithfulness to Yahweh.

and said
This phrase introduces the prophetic message. In biblical narratives, the words of a prophet are not merely human words but are considered the very words of God. The Hebrew verb "said" (אָמַר, 'amar) is frequently used in the Old Testament to introduce divine speech, emphasizing the authority and seriousness of the message.

Go back to the king who sent you
This command highlights the authority of the prophet over the king's messengers. It reflects the biblical theme that God's authority supersedes earthly authority. The historical context here is significant, as it was a time when kings often sought guidance from various deities, yet the prophet redirects them to the true God of Israel.

and tell him
The role of the messengers is to convey the message accurately. In the ancient Near East, messengers were expected to deliver messages verbatim, reflecting the importance of the words they carried. This phrase underscores the responsibility of the messengers to faithfully communicate God's word.

This is what the LORD says
This declaration is a common prophetic formula, asserting that the message originates from Yahweh, the covenant God of Israel. The use of "LORD" (יהוה, YHWH) is significant, as it invokes the personal name of God, reminding the audience of His covenantal relationship with Israel.

Is it because there is no God in Israel
This rhetorical question challenges the king's faith and loyalty. It implies a rebuke for seeking guidance from foreign gods, highlighting the recurring biblical theme of Israel's struggle with idolatry. The question serves to remind the king of God's presence and power in Israel.

that you are sending men to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron?
Baal-zebub, meaning "lord of the flies," was a deity worshiped in Ekron, a Philistine city. This phrase underscores the syncretism and idolatry prevalent in Israel at the time. The historical context reveals the tension between the worship of Yahweh and the allure of foreign gods, which often led Israel astray.

Therefore, you will not get up from the bed on which you are lying
This pronouncement is a direct consequence of the king's actions. The phrase "you will not get up" signifies a divine judgment, emphasizing the seriousness of turning away from God. In the biblical narrative, physical ailments and their outcomes are often seen as reflections of spiritual realities.

You will surely die
This is a definitive statement of judgment. The certainty of the phrase "you will surely die" (מוֹת תָּמוּת, mot tamut) echoes the language of divine decrees found throughout Scripture. It serves as a sobering reminder of the consequences of disobedience and the reality of God's justice.

(6) Thou sendest.--Art sending. Elijah had said, ye are going, in his question to the messengers (2Kings 1:3). (See Note on 2Kings 1:4.) Bahr is wrong in supposing the servants anxious to shift the prophet's blame from themselves to their lord, or that Elijah had addressed them as accomplices in the king's guilt. They had no choice but to obey the royal mandate.

Verse 6. - There came a man. It is not likely that the messengers did not know Elijah by sight. He was too prominent a person in the history of the time, and too remarkable in his appearance, not to have been recognized, at any rate by some of them. But they thought it best to keep back the prophet's name, and to call him simply "a man" (ish) - perhaps actuated by good will towards Elijah, perhaps by a fear for their own safety, such as had been felt by Obadiah (1 Kings 18:8-14).
