2 Kings 8:4 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 8:4

And the king talked with Gehazi the servant of the man of God,
&c.] Elisha's servant, just at the same time the woman made her application to him; so that this was before he was dismissed from the service of the prophet, and consequently before the affair of Naaman's cure, and so before the siege of Samaria:

saying, tell me, I pray thee, all the great things that Elisha hath
done;
the miracles he wrought, as the dividing of the waters of Jordan, and healing those near Jericho; the affair of procuring water for the armies of the three kings in Edom he needed not to relate, since Jehoram was an eyewitness thereof; the next was the multiplying the widow's cruse of oil, when he in course came to those that were done for the Shunammite woman.

2 Kings 8:4 In-Context

2 She had followed his instructions and had gone with her family to live in Philistia for the seven years.
3 At the end of the seven years she returned to Israel and went to the king to ask that her house and her land be restored to her.
4 She found the king talking with Gehazi, Elisha's servant; the king wanted to know about Elisha's miracles.
5 While Gehazi was telling the king how Elisha had brought a dead person back to life, the woman made her appeal to the king. Gehazi said to him, "Your Majesty, here is the woman and here is her son whom Elisha brought back to life!"
6 In answer to the king's question, she confirmed Gehazi's story, and so the king called an official and told him to give back to her everything that was hers, including the value of all the crops that her fields had produced during the seven years she had been away.
