2 Könige 2:19-22

Listen to 2 Könige 2:19-22
19 Und die Männer der Stadt sprachen zu Elisa: Siehe doch, die Lage der Stadt ist gut, wie mein Herr sieht, aber das Wasser ist schlecht, und das Land ist unfruchtbar.
20 Da sprach er: Holet mir eine neue Schale, und tut Salz darein! Und sie holten sie ihm.
21 Und er ging hinaus zu der Quelle des Wassers, und warf das Salz hinein und sprach: So spricht Jehova: Ich habe dieses Wasser gesund gemacht; es wird weder Tod noch Unfruchtbarkeit mehr daraus entstehen.
22 Und das Wasser wurde gesund bis auf diesen Tag, nach dem Worte, das Elisa geredet hatte.

2 Könige 2:19-22 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO 2 KINGS 2

This chapter relates, how that Elisha accompanied Elijah to several places, and on the other side Jordan Elijah was taken up from him to heaven, which occasioned great lamentation in him, 2Ki 2:1-12, but having the mantle of Elijah, he divided the waters of Jordan, and passed over, 2Ki 2:13,14, and the sons of the prophets at Jericho, perceiving the spirit of Elijah on him, showed him great respect, and proposed sending men to seek his master, which they did in vain, 2Ki 2:15-18, when he healed the waters at Jericho, at the request of the men of it, 2Ki 2:19-22, and the chapter is concluded with the destruction of forty two children at Bethel by bears, who mocked him, 2Ki 2:23,24.
