Commentary on 1 Kings 17:17

Theological / Devotional

Fell sick. The widow had every evidence of God’s presence and blessing, and yet her son was stricken. Sorrow and death come to the homes of the righteous as well as the wicked. However diligent and devoted one may be in the service of the Lord, suffering and affliction, disappointment and bereavement, may still be the lot.
