2 Kings 8:5 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 8:5

And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he had
restored a dead body to life
Which was the Shunammite's son:

that, behold, the woman whose son he had restored to life cried to the
king for her house, and for her land;
came and presented her petition to the king at that very instant:

and Gehazi said, my lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her
son, whom Elisha restored to life;
the very person I am speaking of.

2 Kings 8:5 In-Context

3 When seven years had passed, the woman returned from Philistia. She went to appeal to the king for her house and her farmland.

4 The king was speaking to Gehazi, the man of God's servant, asking him, "Tell me about all the great things Elisha has done."

5 So Gehazi was telling the king how Elisha had brought the dead to life. At that very moment, the woman whose son he had brought back to life began to appeal to the king for her house and her farmland. Gehazi said, "Your Majesty, this is the woman herself! And this is her son, the one Elisha brought to life!"

6 The king questioned the woman, and she told him her story. Then the king appointed an official to help her, saying, "Return everything that belongs to her, as well as everything that the farmland has produced, starting from the day she left the country until right now."

7 Now Elisha had gone to Damascus when Aram's King Ben-hadad became sick. The king was told, "The man of God has come all this way."
