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 The servant picked him up and brought him to his mother. The boy sat on her lap until noon, when he died.

21 She took him upstairs and laid him on the bed of the man of God, left [the room], and shut the door behind her.

22 She called her husband and said, "Please send me one of the servants and one of the donkeys. I will go quickly to the man of God and come back again."

23 Her husband asked, "Why are you going to him today? It isn't a New Moon Festival or a day of worship." But she said goodbye to him.

24 She saddled the donkey. Then she told her servant, "Lead on. Don't slow down unless I tell you."
