2 Kings 5:27 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 5:27

The leprosy therefore of Naaman shall cleave unto thee, and
unto thy seed for ever
As long as any of his race remained; as through his covetousness he had his money, so for his punishment he should have his disease:

and he went out from his presence;
as one ashamed and confounded, and discharged from his master's service:

a leper [as white] as snow;
a leprosy of which colour is the worst, and is incurable.

2 Kings 5:27 In-Context

25 And he entered in and stood before his master. And Elisha said to him, Whence [comest thou], Gehazi? And he said, Thy servant went no whither.

26 And he said to him, Did not my heart go, when the man turned again from his chariot to meet thee? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and oliveyards, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and bondmen, and bondwomen?

27 But the leprosy of Naaman shall fasten upon thee, and upon thy seed for ever. And he went out from his presence leprous, as snow.
