Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
And he said unto him - There is a most singular and important reading in one of De Rossi' s MSS., which he numbers 191. It has in the margin that is, "read lo , not, instead of lo , to him." Now this reading supposes that Naaman did ask permission from the prophet to worship in Rimmon' s temple; to which the prophet answers, No; go in peace: that is, maintain thy holy resolutions, be a consistent worshipper of the true God, and avoid all idolatrous practices. Another MS., No. 383, appears first to have written to him, but to have corrected it immediately by inserting an aleph after the vau ; and thus, instead of making it no, it has made it lu , which is no word.
