Context — God's Judgment and Ahab's Humilitygenerated

26He committed the most detestable acts by going after idols, just like the Amorites whom the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.)
27When Ahab heard these words, he tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and fasted. He lay down in sackcloth and walked around meekly.
28Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying:
29“Have you seen how Ahab has humbled himself before Me? Because he has humbled himself before Me, I will not bring the calamity during his days, but I will bring it upon his house in the days of his son.”

1 Kings 21:29 occurs in the context of God's judgment upon Ahab for his wickedness. Ahab has shown humility and repentance, prompting God to delay the calamity that was to come upon him. This passage illustrates the theme of God's mercy in response to genuine repentance, as seen in the preceding verses where Ahab mourns and fasts after receiving God's word through Elijah.

The Key Word נִכְנַ֥ע, nikh.Na'generated

The verb כָּנַע (kana') means 'to humble oneself' or 'to submit.' It indicates an act of bending down or lowering oneself, often in the context of showing respect or submission to God. In this verse, Ahab's humility is emphasized, highlighting a significant change in his attitude.

The Niphal form indicates that Ahab is the subject of the action, meaning he has humbled himself. This reflects a personal decision to submit to God's authority, contrasting with his previous actions that led to God's judgment.


How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated

The translations generally agree on the core meaning of the verse.


Sentence Structuregenerated

The main verb of the verse is הֲֽרָאִ֔יתָ, have you seen, which introduces the inquiry about Ahab's humility. This is followed by a subordinate clause explaining the consequences of Ahab's actions.

The sentence structure is complex, with multiple clauses detailing Ahab's actions and God's response. The use of subordinate clauses allows for a clear connection between Ahab's humility and God's decision regarding calamity.


Septuagint Backgroundgenerated

The Septuagint translates the Hebrew נִכְנַ֥ע as κατενύγη, which conveys a sense of being deeply moved or humbled. This choice indicates an interpretation that emphasizes the emotional weight of Ahab's submission to God.

The Greek translation reflects a broader understanding of humility, suggesting a profound internal change rather than just an external act of submission.


In plain words — the whole versegenerated

1 Kings 21:29 shows God speaking to Elijah about Ahab, who has humbled himself. Because of this humility, God decides not to bring disaster during Ahab's lifetime but will bring it upon his descendants later. This illustrates God's mercy in response to Ahab's repentance.


Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated

What does it mean that Ahab humbled himself?

Ahab's humility indicates a recognition of his wrongdoing and a submission to God's authority, which is significant in the context of his previous actions.

Why does God postpone the calamity?

God postpones the calamity as a response to Ahab's genuine humility and repentance, demonstrating His mercy.

What is the significance of the phrase 'in the days of his son'?

This phrase indicates that while Ahab is spared from immediate judgment, the consequences of his actions will affect his descendants.

  1. What does true humility look like in my own life?
  2. How can I respond to God's authority as Ahab did?

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers

(29) How Ahab humbleth himself.—As there is something entirely characteristic of Ahab’s impressible nature in this burst of penitence; so in the acceptance of it there is a remarkable illustration of the Divine mercy. The repentance might seem not only to come too late, but to be the mere offspring of fear—more sensible of the shame of discovery than of the shamefulness of sin. Man’s judgment would despise it; God sees in its imperfection some germs of promise, and His partial remission of penalty shows it to be not disregarded in His sight. Ahab himself is still to suffer the predicted doom; but he is to die in honour, and the utter destruction waits, till Jehoram shall fill up the measure…

AdamClarkeAdam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible

Verse 29. Seest thou how Ahab humbleth himself] He did abase himself; he did truly repent him of his sins, and it was such a repentance as was genuine in the sight of God: He humbleth himself BEFORE ME. The penitent heart ever meets the merciful eye of God; repentance is highly esteemed by the Father of compassion, even where it is comparatively shallow and short-lived. Any measure of godly sorrow has a proportionate measure of God's regard; where it is deep and lasting, the heart of God is set upon it. He that mourns shall be comforted; thus hath God spoken, and though repentance for our past sins can purchase no favour, yet without it God will not grant us his salvation.

29. because he humbleth himself before me] These words are left out by the LXX., as are also ‘upon his house’ at the close of the verse.

The Jews explain the word ðùׂ ?à which is rendered ‘forgiving’ iniquity (Exodus 34:7; Numbers 14:18; &c.) by reference to its original meaning which is ‘to lift up’. God, say they, raises the load, so that it does not press all at once, or men would perish under it, but the lifted burden is divided into parts, and men feel it in consequence for a long time to come.

1. Ahab's Reign:

Ahab, son of Omri, the seventh king of Israel, who reigned for twenty-two years, from 876 to 854 (1Ki 16:28 ff), was one of the strongest and at the same time one of the weakest kings of Israel. With his kingdom he inherited also the traditional enemies of the kingdom, who were no less ready to make trouble for him than for his predecessors. Occupying a critical position at the best, with foes ever ready to take advantage of any momentary weakness, the kingdom…

Easton's Bible Dictionary

Ahab

Father’s brother. (1.) The son of Omri, whom he succeeded as the seventh king of Israel. His history is recorded in 1 Kings 16-22. His wife was Jezebel (q.v.), who exercised a very evil influence over him. To the calf-worship introduced by Jeroboam he added the worship of Baal. He was severely admonished by Elijah (q.v.) for his wickedness. His anger was on this account kindled against the prophet, and he sought to kill him. He undertook three campaigns against Ben-hadad II., king of Damascus. In the first two, which were defensive, he gained a complete victory over Ben-hadad, who fell into his hands, and was afterwards released on the condition of his restoring all the cities of Israel he then held, and granting certain other concessions to Ahab. After three years of peace, for some cause Ahab renewed war (1 Kings 22:3) with…

Smith's Bible Dictionary

(uncle). Son of Omri, seventh king of Israel, reigned B.C. 919-896. He married Jezebel, daughter of Ethbaal king of Tyre; and in obedience to her wishes, caused temple to be built to Baal in Samaria itself; and an oracular grove to be consecrated to Astarte. See (1 Kings 18:19) One of Ahab’s chief tastes was for splendid architecture which he showed by building an ivory house and several cities. Desiring to add to his pleasure-grounds at Jezreel the vineyard of his neighbor Naboth, he proposed to buy it or give land in exchange for it; and when this was refused by Naboth in accordance with the Levitical law, (Leviticus 25:23) a false accusation of blasphemy was brought against him, and he was murdered, and Ahab took possession of the coveted fields.

ev'-'-l, e'-vil ra`; poneros, @kakos, @kakon:

In the Bible it is represented as moral and physical. We choose to discuss the subject under these heads. Many of the evils that come upon men have not been intended by those who suffer for them. Disease, individual and national calamity, drought, scarcity of food, may not always be charged to the account of intentional wrong. Many times the innocent suffer with, and even for, the guilty. In such cases, only physical evil is apparent. Even when the suffering has been occasioned by sin or dereliction of duty, whether the wrong is active or passive, many, perhaps the majority of those who are injured, are not accountable in any way for the ills which come upon them. Neither is God the author of moral evil. "God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempteth no man" (Jas 1:13).

ov:

(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

ev'-'-l, e'-vil ra`; poneros, @kakos, @kakon:

In the Bible it is represented as moral and physical. We choose to discuss the subject under these heads. Many of the evils that come upon men have not been intended by those who suffer for them. Disease, individual and national calamity, drought, scarcity of food, may not always be charged to the account of intentional wrong. Many times the innocent suffer with, and even for, the guilty. In such cases, only physical evil is apparent. Even when the suffering has been occasioned by sin or dereliction of duty, whether the wrong is active or passive, many, perhaps the majority of those who are injured, are not accountable in any way for the ills which come upon them. Neither is God the author of moral evil. "God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempteth no man" (Jas 1:13).

Light; the sun, (Gen. 41:45, 50), the great seat of sun-worship, called also Bethshemesh (Jer. 43:13) and Aven (Ezek. 30:17), stood on the east bank of the Nile, a few miles north of Memphis, and near Cairo, in the north-east. The Vulgate and the LXX. Versions have “Heliopolis” (“city of the sun”) instead of On in Genesis and of Aven in Ezekiel. The “city of destruction” Isaiah speaks of (19:18, marg. “of Heres;” Heb. ‘Ir-ha-heres, which some MSS. read Ir-ha-heres, i.e., “city of the sun”) may be the name given to On, the prophecy being that the time will come when that city which was known as the “city of the sun-god” shall become the “city of destruction” of the sun-god, i.e., when idolatry shall cease, and the worship…

It was situated on the east side of the Pelusiac branch of the Nile, just below the point of the Delta, and about twenty miles northeast of Memphis. The chief object of worship at Heliopolis was the sun, whose temple, described by Strabo, is now only represented by the single beautiful obelisk, of red granite so feet 2 inches high above the pedestal which has stood for more than 4000 years, having been erected by Usirtesen, the second king of the twelfth dynasty. Heliopolis was anciently famous for its learning, and Eudoxus and Plato studied under its priests.
