Exegesis
The construct et-pənē YHWH {אֶת־פְּנֵ֨י יְהוָה | ʾet pənē Yəhōwāh} ‘seek the face of the LORD’ conveys appeal for divine favor.
In context — 1 Kings 13:6
And the king answered and said to the man of God, “Please seek the face of the LORD your God and pray for me, that my hand may return to me.” So the man of God sought the face of the LORD and the king’s hand was restored to him and became as it was before .
