2 Kings 3:11 - Forerunner Commentary

2 Kings 3:11

9 So the king of Israel went with the king of Judah and the king of Edom, and they marched on that roundabout route seven days; and there was no water for the army, nor for the animals that followed them.

10 And the king of Israel said, “Alas! For the Lord has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab.”

11 But ^aJehoshaphat said, “Is there no prophet of the Lord here, that we may inquire of the Lord by him?” So one of the servants of the king of Israel answered and said, “Elisha the son of Shaphat is here, who ^bpoured water on the hands of Elijah.”

12 And Jehoshaphat said, “The word of the Lord is with him.” So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom ^awent down to him.

13 Then Elisha said to the king of Israel, ^a“What have I to do with you? ^bGo to ^cthe prophets of your father and the ^dprophets of your mother.” But the king of Israel said to him, “No, for the Lord has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab.”

14 And Elisha said, ^a“As the Lord of hosts lives, before whom I stand, surely were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, I would not look at you, nor see you.

15 But now bring me ^aa musician.” Then it happened, when the musician ^bplayed, that ^cthe hand of the Lord came upon him.

16 And he said, “Thus says the Lord: ^a‘Make this valley full of ditches.’
