2 Re 4:18 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 4:18

And when the child was grown
Perhaps was six or seven years of age, or more:

it fell on a day that he went out to his father to the reapers;
it was harvest time, and the men were reaping the corn in the fields; and his father, though a wealthy man, was with them to direct them, and see they did their business well, as Boaz formerly; and the child went out from the house to the field, to see his father and the reapers, for his recreation and diversion.

2 Re 4:18 In-Context

16 Ed Eliseo le disse: "L’anno prossimo, in questo stesso tempo, tu abbraccerai un figliuolo". Ella rispose: "No, signor mio, tu che sei un uomo di Dio, non ingannare la tua serva!"
17 E questa donna concepì e partorì un figliuolo, in quel medesimo tempo, l’anno dopo, come Eliseo le aveva detto.
18 Il bambino si fe’ grande; e, un giorno ch’era uscito per andare da suo padre presso i mietitori,
19 disse a suo padre: "Oh! la mia testa! la mia testa!" Il padre disse al suo servo: "Portalo a sua madre!"
20 Il servo lo portò via e lo recò a sua madre. Il fanciullo rimase sulle ginocchia di lei fino a mezzogiorno, poi si morì.
