1 Kings19:15
15 And the LORD said unto him, Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus: and when thou comest, anoint Hazael to be king over Syria .
By which thou camest; for so in part lay the way from Horeb to Damascus.
Anoint: Either, First, Figuratively, i. e. appoint or declare him King; which was done, 2 King. 8. 12. For this word is oft used of them who were Anointed with Oil, Psal. 45. 7. Isa. 45. 1. and 61. 1. Zech. 4. 14. Dan. 9. 24. Or, Secondly, Properly; which might be done, though it be not related. Again, anoint, either, by thy self; or, by another: for so he Anointed Iehu by Elisha, 2 King. 9. 1, 6.
