2 Reis 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 Reis 6:23 In-Context

21 Quando o rei de Israel os viu, perguntou a Eliseu: “Devo matá-los, meu pai? Devo matá-los?”
22 Ele respondeu: “Não! O rei costuma matar prisioneiros que captura com a espada e o arco? Ordena que lhes sirvam comida e bebida e deixe que voltem ao seu senhor”.
23 Então o rei preparou-lhes um grande banquete e, terminando eles de comer e beber, mandou-os de volta para o seu senhor. Assim, as tropas da Síria pararam de invadir o território de Israel.
24 Algum tempo depois, Ben-Hadade, rei da Síria, mobilizou todo o seu exército e cercou Samaria.
25 O cerco durou tanto e causou tamanha fome que uma cabeça de jumento chegou a valer oitenta peças de prata, e uma caneca de esterco de pomba, cinco peças de prata.
