2 Re 6:8 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 6:8

Then the king of Syria warred against Israel
Proclaimed war against him; on what account, or how long it was after Naaman his general came with a letter of recommendation from him to the king of Israel, and had his cure, is not said:

and took counsel with his servants;
his privy counsellors, or the general officers of his army:

saying, in such and such a place shall be my camp;
in some covered hidden place, as the Targum; where he would lie encamped waiting in ambush, to fall upon the king of Israel unawares, as he and his forces should pass that way; the place, no doubt, was named by the king of Syria, though not recorded by the historian; or, as the words may be rendered,

the place of such and such a man;
for, as Ben Melech observes, "peloni almoni" are used of persons whose names are either unknown or concealed.

2 Re 6:8 In-Context

6 E l’uomo di Dio disse: Ove è caduto? Ed egli gli mostrò il luogo. Allora egli tagliò un legno, e lo gittò là, e fece notare il ferro disopra; e disse a colui: Toglilo.
7 Ed egli distese la mano, e lo prese.
8 Or il re di Siria faceva guerra contro ad Israele, e si consigliava co’ suoi servitori, dicendo: Io porrò campo in tale ed in tal luogo.
9 E l’uomo di Dio mandava a dire al re d’Israele: Guardati che tu non passi per quel luogo; perciocchè i Siri vi sono in agguato.
10 E il re d’Israele mandava a quel luogo che gli avea detto l’uomo di Dio, e del quale egli l’avea avvisato, e si guardava di passar per là; e questo avvenne più d’una, e di due volte.
