Clarke's 1-kings 13:21 Bible Commentary
And he - That is, according to the above interpretation, the voice of God from heaven addressing the man of God, the old prophet having nothing to do in this business.
Barnes's 1-kings 13:21 Bible Commentary
Forasmuch as thou hast disobeyed the mouth of the Lord - It was his duty not to have suffered himself to be persuaded. He should have felt that his obedience was being tried, and should have required, ere he considered himself released, "the same, or as strong, evidence," as that on which he had received the obligation. Disobedience to certain positive commands of God, was one which it was at this time very important to punish signally, since it was exactly the sin of Jeroboam and his adherents.
Wesley's 1-kings 13:21 Bible Commentary
13:21 Cried - With a loud voice, the effect of his passion, both for his own guilt and shame, and for the prophet's approaching misery.
