1 Kings 13:1

Behold, there came a man of God A holy prophet; for none are called men of God in the Old Testament, but prophets. By the word of the Lord By divine inspiration and command. “There is no foundation for so much as conjecture who this prophet was. His prophecy, however, is one of the most remarkable which we have in sacred writ. It foretels an action that exactly came to pass above three hundred and forty years afterward. It describes the circumstances of the action; and specifies the very name of the person who was to do it; and therefore every considerate Jew, who lived in the time of its accomplishment, must have been convinced of the divine authority of a religion founded on such prophecies as this; since none but God could foresee, and consequently none but God could fore-tel events at such a distance.” Le Clerc, Calmet, and Dodd. Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn incense Upon the feast day which he had instituted.
