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, le preguntó a Eliseo:—¿Los mato, mi señor? ¿Los mato?
22 —No, no los mates —contestó Eliseo—. ¿Acaso los has capturado con tu espada y tu arco, para que los mates? Mejor sírveles comida y agua para que coman y beban, y que luego vuelvan a su rey.
23 Así que el rey de Israel les dio un tremendo banquete. Cuando terminaron de comer, los despidió, y ellos regresaron a su rey. Y las bandas de sirios no volvieron a invadir el territorio israelita.
24 Algún tiempo después, Ben Adad, rey de Siria, movilizó todo su ejército para ir a Samaria y sitiarla.
25 El sitio duró tanto tiempo que provocó un hambre terrible en la ciudad, a tal grado que una cabeza de asno llegó a costar ochenta monedas de plata, y un poco de algarroba, cinco.
