  1. Good questions!<\/em> Why was it forbidden for the man of God to eat, drink and return by the same path? Is the prophet from Bethel a true or false prophet? Why does he seem to want to trip up the man of God? Why does the man of God become exemplary also in his death? And more…<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. The writing on the wall<\/em>. In 32 more chapters (2 Kings 23), Josiah will institute a sweeping religious reform, banning the high places, and centralizing the cultic worship in Jerusalem. This chapter gives us a clear foreshadowing, including Josiah\u2019s name. So that it\u2019s clear to all that if there isn\u2019t a big \u201crepair\u201d of the situation – the end is foretold.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Prophet and man of God<\/em>. The chapter is very clear about who is \u201cthe man of God\u201d and who \u201cthe prophet\u201d – so we don\u2019t mix them up.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. My brother\u2026<\/em> Actually \u201c<\/span>hoi achi – <\/span><\/i>\u00a0alas, my brother!\u201d That\u2019s how the prophet eulogizes the man of God (v. 30). Apparently, that was the accepted practice.<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. What are the plans<\/em>? Why does the prophet want to be buried in the same grave as the man of God? Is his wish granted? We will find out in another 32 chapters (2 Kings 23)… Stay tuned.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","image":{"ID":86314,"id":86314,"title":"Points to
