2 Reis 6:17 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 6:17

And Elisha prayed, and said, Lord, I pray thee, open his eyes,
that he may see
Not the eyes of his body, which were not shut nor blinded, but the eyes of his mind; or, in other words, grant him a vision, represented in so strong a light, as to remove his fears:

and the Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw;
he had a vision of angels:

and, behold, the mountain;
on which the city was built, or one near it:

was full of horses and chariots of fire;
angels in this form, as in ( 2 Kings 2:11 ) , and these were

round about Elisha;
being round about the city where he was; or rather so in the vision it was represented to the young man, he saw his master surrounded with horses and chariots of fire, in the utmost safety.

2 Reis 6:17 In-Context

15 Tendo o moço do homem de Deus se levantado muito cedo, saiu, e eis que um exército tinha cercado a cidade com cavalos e carros. Então o moço disse ao homem de Deus: Ai, meu senhor! que faremos?
16 Respondeu ele: Não temas; porque os que estão conosco são mais do que os que estão com eles.
17 E Eliseu orou, e disse: ç senhor, peço-te que lhe abras os olhos, para que veja. E o Senhor abriu os olhos do moço, e ele viu; e eis que o monte estava cheio de cavalos e carros de fogo em redor de Eliseu.
18 Quando os sírios desceram a ele, Eliseu orou ao Senhor, e disse: Fere de cegueira esta gente, peço-te. E o Senhor os feriu de cegueira, conforme o pedido de Eliseu.
19 Então Eliseu lhes disse: Não é este o caminho, nem é esta a cidade; segui-me, e guiar-vos-ei ao homem que buscais. E os guiou a Samária.
