2 Reyes 13:19 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 13:19

And the man of God was wroth with him
Because he ceased smiting, and smote no oftener; for it was revealed to the prophet, by an impulse upon his mind, that by the number of times he smote on the ground, it would be known how often he should get the victory over his enemies; but this was to be left to the king's own will, how often he would smite, and thereby the prophet would know also with what spirit he would pursue his victories, and the advantages he would gain:

and said, thou shouldest have smitten five or six times, then hadst
thou smitten Syria until thou hadst consumed it;
as a nation, as well as routed their several armies:

whereas now thou shalt smite Syria but thrice;
beat them only three times in battle, according to the number of his smitings on the ground.

17 Y dijo: Abre la ventana de hacia el oriente. Y como 茅l la abri贸 dijo Eliseo: Tira. Y tirando 茅l, dijo Eliseo: Saeta de salud de Jehov谩, y saeta de salud contra Siria: porque herir谩s 谩 los Siros en Aphec, hasta consumirlos.
18 Y torn贸le 谩 decir: Toma las saetas. Y luego que el rey de Israel las hubo tomado, d铆jole: Hiere la tierra. Y 茅l hiri贸 tres veces, y ces贸.

20 Y muri贸 Eliseo, y sepult谩ronlo. Entrado el a帽o vinieron partidas de Moabitas 谩 la tierra.
21 Y aconteci贸 que al sepultar unos un hombre, s煤bitamente vieron una partida, y arrojaron al hombre en el sepulcro de Eliseo: y cuando lleg贸 谩 tocar el muerto los huesos de Eliseo, revivi贸, y levant贸se sobre sus pies.
