2 Kings 4:22 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 4:22

And she called unto her husband
In the field, who might be within call, or by a messenger she sent to him:

and said, send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the
asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come again;
intimating that she should not be long gone, but should return again presently; saying not a word of the death of the child, or of the occasion of her going.

2 Kings 4:22 In-Context

20 So he picked him up and took him to his mother. The child sat on her lap until noon and then died.

21 Then she went up and laid him on the bed of the man of God, shut him in, and left.

22 She summoned her husband and said, "Please send me one of the servants and one of the donkeys, so I can hurry to the man of God and then come back."

23 But he said, "Why go to him today? It's neither New Moon or Sabbath." She replied, "Everything is all right."

24 Then she saddled the donkey and said to her servant, "Hurry, don't slow the pace for me unless I tell you."
