וַֽיְחַלְּק֥וּ לָהֶ֛ם אֶת־הָאָ֖רֶץ לַֽעֲבָר־בָּ֑הּ אַחְאָ֞ב הָלַ֨ךְ בְּדֶ֤רֶךְ אֶחָד֙ לְבַדּ֔וֹ וְעֹֽבַדְיָ֛הוּ הָלַ֥ךְ בְּדֶרֶךְ־אֶחָ֖ד לְבַדּֽוֹ׃
Lalu mereka membagi negeri itu di antara mereka untuk menjelajahinya. Ahab pergi melalui satu jalan seorang diri, dan Obaja pergi melalui jalan lain seorang diri.
Tze'enah Ure'enah
“They divided the land” [18:6]. Ahab divided the land. That is to say, he went to search half the land himself and Obadiah went to the other half of the land to search for water and grass.
