Exegesis
The substantive ish haelohim {אִישׁ הָאֱלֹהִים | ʾîsh hā-ʾĕ-lō-hîm} ‘man of God’ is further defined by asher ba miyehudah {אֲשֶׁר־בָּא מִיהוּדָה | ă-šer bāʾ mi-yĕ-hū-dāh}, situating him as a divine envoy from Judah. Although vayire’u literally means ‘they saw’, it is rendered ‘showed’ and ‘pointed out’ to reflect the communicative function of the sons in indicating the path.
In context — 1 Kings 13:12
And their father spoke to them, “Which is the way he went?” And his sons showed the way that the man of God who came from Judah went.
