Context — Elijah Denounces Ahaziah
13So the king sent a third captain with his fifty men. And the third captain went up, fell on his knees before Elijah, and begged him, “Man of God, may my life and the lives of these fifty servants of yours please be precious in your sight.
14Behold, fire has come down from heaven and consumed the first two captains of fifty, with all their men. But now may my life be precious in your sight.”
15Then the angel of the LORD said to Elijah, “Go down with him. Do not be afraid of him.” So Elijah got up and went down with him to the king.
16And Elijah said to King Ahaziah, “This is what the LORD says: Is there really no God in Israel for you to inquire of His word? Is that why you have sent messengers to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not get up from the bed on which you are lying. You will surely die.” 17So Ahaziah died according to the word of the LORD that Elijah had spoken. And since he had no son, Jehoram succeeded him in the second year of the reign of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat over Judah.Cross References

2 Kings 1:15 Summary
[This verse shows us that God is always in control, even when things seem scary or uncertain. Elijah was told to go down to the king, and he obeyed, trusting in God's power and protection, just like we're called to trust in God's sovereignty, as seen in Romans 8:28. The angel's command to Elijah reminds us that we don't have to be afraid, because God is with us, as promised in Isaiah 41:10. By obeying God's commands, we can experience His power and protection in our own lives, just like Elijah did.]
Frequently Asked Questions
Why did the angel of the LORD tell Elijah to go down with the third captain?
The angel told Elijah to go down with the third captain because God had a message for King Ahaziah, and Elijah was the chosen messenger, as seen in 2 Kings 1:15. This demonstrates God's sovereignty and Elijah's obedience to God's commands, similar to Moses' obedience in Exodus 3:10.
Was Elijah afraid of the king before the angel spoke to him?
The Bible doesn't explicitly state that Elijah was afraid, but the angel's command 'Do not be afraid of him' suggests that Elijah may have had some apprehension, which is natural given the king's previous actions, as seen in 2 Kings 1:9-14.
What can we learn from the angel's command to Elijah?
The angel's command teaches us to trust in God's power and protection, even in the face of potential danger or opposition, as seen in Psalm 23:4 and Isaiah 41:10.
How does this verse relate to the overall story of 2 Kings 1?
This verse is a pivotal moment in the story, as it sets the stage for Elijah's confrontation with King Ahaziah and the proclamation of God's judgment, which is a recurring theme throughout 2 Kings, as seen in 2 Kings 1:16-17 and 2 Kings 8:7-15.
Reflection Questions
- What are some areas in my life where I need to trust in God's power and protection, just like Elijah did in this verse?
- How can I apply the principle of obeying God's commands, even when it's difficult or uncomfortable, as Elijah did in this verse?
- What can I learn from the angel's gentle yet firm command to Elijah, and how can I apply that to my own relationships and interactions with others?
- In what ways can I be a messenger of God's message to those around me, just like Elijah was to King Ahaziah?
Gill's Exposition on 2 Kings 1:15
And the angel of the Lord said unto Elijah, e.] The same as in 2 Kings 1:3 or "had said" (g), as some render it, before this captain came: go down with him the captain and his men: and be not afraid
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 2 Kings 1:15
And the angel of the LORD said unto Elijah, Go down with him: be not afraid of him. And he arose, and went down with him unto the king. Arose, and went down with him. A marvelous instance of faith and obedience.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on 2 Kings 1:15
Not fearing the rage of the king, nor of Jezebel, nor of all their forces; wherein he gives an eminent example of his faith and obedience; and withal, of his growth in grace since that time that he fled for fear of Jezebel, .

2 Kings 1:15 And the angel of the LORD said unto Elijah, Go down with him: be not afraid of him. And he arose, and went down with him unto the king.Ver. 15. Be not afraid of him.] See 2 Kings 1:9. Cur timeat hominem homo in sinu Dei positus?
Ellicott's Commentary on 2 Kings 1:15
(15) Said.—So LXX. (εἶπεν). Heb., spake. Vulgate and Arabic add “saying.” (See Note on 2 Kings 1:3.) Go down.—From the mountain top into the city. With him.—’Othτ, later form for ’ittτ, which some MSS. read here. Be not afraid of him—i.e., the captain. The former two, as being the willing tools of the king, might have shown their zeal by instantly slaying the prophet. (Comp. the case of the knights who murdered St. Thomas of Canterbury.)
Adam Clarke's Commentary on 2 Kings 1:15
Verse 15. And the angel of the Lord said - Go down with him] This is an additional proof that Elijah was then acting under particular inspirations: he had neither will nor design of his own. He waited to know the counsel, declare the will, and obey the command, of his God. And he arose, and went down] He did not even regard his personal safety or his life; he goes without the least hesitation to the king, though he had reason to suppose he would be doubly irritated by his prediction, and the death of one hundred of his men. But with all these consequences he had nothing to do; he was the ambassador of the King eternal, and his honour and life were in the hands of his Master.
Cambridge Bible on 2 Kings 1:15
15. be not afraid of him] Some have taken the pronoun here to refer to the captain. This can hardly be correct. The third messenger was all humility and entreaty, and the only person to be feared was the king Ahaziah, irate because of the destruction of his soldiers and the defiance of his authority.
Whedon's Commentary on 2 Kings 1:15
15. Be not afraid of him — Notwithstanding all the wonders wrought by God through the ministry of Elijah, he ever continued a man of like passions with ourselves, and in this case needed the assuring
