2 Reyes 4:35 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 4:35

Then he returned and walked in the house to and fro
Left the chamber, and came down to the house where the family chiefly resided, and walked to and fro in deep thought and meditation, and, no doubt, in fervent ejaculations for the wished for blessing to be completed:

and went up;
to the chamber again, and up to the bed in it:

and stretched himself upon him;
as before:

and the child sneezed seven times;
which was a sign of life, and even of health; and hereby his head was cleared, as some observe, of those humours that had caused the pains in it F1, and had issued in death:

and the child opened his eyes;
upon the prophet, another sign of life.

33 Entrando 茅l entonces, cerr贸 la puerta sobre ambos, y or贸 谩 Jehov谩.
34 Despu茅s subi贸, y ech贸se sobre el ni帽o, poniendo su boca sobre la boca de 茅l, y sus ojos sobre sus ojos, y sus manos sobre las manos suyas; as铆 se tendi贸 sobre 茅l, y calent贸se la carne del joven.
35 Volvi茅ndose luego, pas茅ose por la casa 谩 una parte y 谩 otra, y despu茅s subi贸, y tendi贸se sobre 茅l; y el joven estornud贸 siete veces, y abri贸 sus ojos.
36 Entonces llam贸 茅l 谩 Giezi, y d铆jole: Llama 谩 esta Sunamita. Y 茅l la llam贸. Y entrando ella, 茅l le dijo: Toma tu hijo.
37 Y as铆 que ella entr贸, ech贸se 谩 sus pies, 茅 inclin贸se 谩 tierra: despu茅s tom贸 su hijo, y sali贸se.
