2 Reis 7:17 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 7:17

And the king appointed the lord, on whose hand he leaned, to
have the charge of the gate
Not to keep out the enemy, of which there was no danger; but to prevent disorders and tumults among the people, and that they might go out in an orderly and regular manner:

and the people trod upon him in the gate;
being eager to get out for food; and he endeavouring to keep order among them, they pressed upon him, and threw him down, and trampled him under foot; or he was placed here to regulate the market, that everyone might be supplied in course, but through the people's pressing to get provisions, he was overborne, and trod upon:

and died, as the man of God had said, who spake when the king came down
to him;
so that he saw the plenty, but partook not of it, as he said, see ( 2 Kings 7:2 ) .

2 Reis 7:17 In-Context

15 E foram após ele até o Jordão; e eis que todo o caminho estava cheio de roupas e de objetos que os sírios, na sua precipitação, tinham lançado fora; e voltaram os mensageiros, e o anunciaram ao rei.
16 Então saiu o povo, e saqueou o arraial dos sírios. Assim houve uma medida de farinha por um siclo e duas medidas de cevada por um siclo, conforme a palavra do Senhor.
17 O rei pusera � porta o capitão em cujo braço ele se apoiava; e o povo o atropelou na porta, de sorte que morreu, como falara o homem de Deus quando o rei descera a ter com ele.
18 Porque, quando o homem de Deus falara ao rei, dizendo: Amanhã, por estas horas, haverá duas medidas de cevada por um siclo, e uma medida de farinha por um siclo, � porta de Samária,
19 aquele capitão respondera ao homem de Deus: Ainda que o Senhor fizesse janelas no céu poderia isso suceder? e ele dissera: Eis que o verás com os teus olhos, porém não comerás.
