2 Reyes 6:23 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 6:23

And he prepared great provision for them
Or a great feast, as the Targum; so obedient was he to the prophet's orders:

and when they had eaten and drank;
and refreshed themselves, which they needed, having marched all night and that morning from place to place:

he sent them away;
that is, the king of Israel dismissed them:

and they went to their master;
the king of Syria, but without the prophet Elisha they were sent to fetch:

so the bands of Syria came no more into the land of Israel;
not as yet, or for some time; or rather the sense is, that the Syrians came not any more in small bodies, as troops of robbers making excursions, and carrying off booty in a private manner, and by surprise; but afterwards came with a large army in an open hostile manner, as follows.

2 Reyes 6:23 In-Context

21 Cuando el rey de Israel los vio, dijo a Eliseo: ¿Los mato, padre mío? ¿Los mato?
22 Y él respondió: No los mates. ¿Matarías a los que has tomado cautivos con tu espada y con tu arco? Pon delante de ellos pan y agua para que coman y beban y se vuelvan a su señor.
23 Entonces les preparó un gran banquete; y después que comieron y bebieron, los despidió, y se volvieron a su señor. Y las bandas armadas de arameos no volvieron a entrar más en la tierra de Israel.
24 Y aconteció que después de esto, Ben-adad, rey de Aram, reunió a todo su ejército, y subió y sitió a Samaria.
25 Y hubo gran hambre en Samaria; y he aquí, la sitiaron, hasta que la cabeza de un asno se vendía por ochenta siclos de plata, y la cuarta parte de un cab de estiércol de paloma por cinco siclos de plata.
