SEV Biblia, Chapter 19:7
Y volviendo el ángel del SEÑOR la segunda vez, le tocó, diciendo: Levántate, come; porque gran camino te resta.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Kings 19:7
Verse 7. The journey is too great for thee.] From Beer-sheba to Horeb was about one hundred and fifty miles.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 7. And the angel of the Lord came again the second time, and touched him , etc.] In order to awake him out of sleep: and said unto him, arise, and eat, because the journey is too great for thee ; which he had to go to Horeb, without eating more than he had; and there were no provisions to be had in a common way and manner in his road thither.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-8 - Jezebel sent Elijah a threatening message. Carnal hearts are hardene and enraged against God, by that which should convince and conque them. Great faith is not always alike strong. He might be serviceabl to Israel at this time, and had all reason to depend upon God' protection, while doing God's work; yet he flees. His was not the deliberate desire of grace, as Paul's, to depart and be with Christ God thus left Elijah to himself, to show that when he was bold an strong, it was in the Lord, and the power of his might; but of himsel he was no better than his fathers. God knows what he designs us for though we do not, what services, what trials, and he will take car that we are furnished with grace sufficient.
