Melachim Bais 5:19 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 5:19

And he said unto him
That is, the prophet said to Naaman:

go in peace:
in peace of mind; be assured that God has pardoned this and all other transgressions:

so he departed from him a little way;
about a mile, as the Targum, and so other Jewish writers; of this phrase, (See Gill on Genesis 35:16), some say a land's length, that is, about one hundred and twenty feet; rather it was a thousand cubits, or half a mile.

Melachim Bais 5:19 In-Context

17 And Na’aman said, Shall there not then, please, be given to thy eved two mules’ massa (burden) of adamah? For thy eved will henceforth offer neither olah nor zevach unto elohim acherim, but unto Hashem.
18 In this thing Hashem pardon thy eved, that when adoni goeth into the Bais Rimmon to bow down there, and he leaneth on my yad, and I bow myself in the Bais Rimmon; when I bow down myself in the Bais Rimmon, Hashem pardon thy eved in this thing.
19 And he said unto him, Go in shalom. So he departed from him some distance.
20 But Geichazi, the na’ar Elishah the Ish HaElohim, said, Hinei, adoni hath spared Na’aman HaArami hazeh by not accepting at his hands that which he brought: but, as Hashem liveth, I will run after him, and take something of him.
21 So Geichazi pursued after Na’aman. And when Na’aman saw him running after him, he got down from the merkavah to meet him, and said, HaShalom (is all well)?
