2 Kings 4:13 - Forerunner Commentary

2 Kings 4:13

11 And it happened one day that he came there, and he turned in to the upper room and lay down there.

12 Then he said to ^aGehazi his servant, “Call this Shunammite woman.” When he had called her, she stood before him.

13 And he said to him, “Say now to her, ‘Look, you have been concerned for us with all this care. What can I do for you? Do you want me to speak on your behalf to the king or to the commander of the army?’ ” She answered, “I dwell among my own people.”

14 So he said, “What then is to be done for her?” And Gehazi answered, “Actually, she has no son, and her husband is old.”

15 So he said, “Call her.” When he had called her, she stood in the doorway.

16 Then he said,¹ “About this time next year you shall embrace a son.” And she said, “No, my lord. Man of God, ^ado not lie to your maidservant!”

17 But the woman conceived, and bore a son when the appointed time had come, of which Elisha had told her.

18 And the child grew. Now it happened one day that he went out to his father, to the reapers.
