2 Reyes 7:17 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 7:17

And the king appointed the lord, on whose hand he leaned, to
have the charge of the gate
Not to keep out the enemy, of which there was no danger; but to prevent disorders and tumults among the people, and that they might go out in an orderly and regular manner:

and the people trod upon him in the gate;
being eager to get out for food; and he endeavouring to keep order among them, they pressed upon him, and threw him down, and trampled him under foot; or he was placed here to regulate the market, that everyone might be supplied in course, but through the people's pressing to get provisions, he was overborne, and trod upon:

and died, as the man of God had said, who spake when the king came down
to him;
so that he saw the plenty, but partook not of it, as he said, see ( 2 Kings 7:2 ) .

2 Reyes 7:17 In-Context

15 Y ellos fueron, y los siguieron hasta el Jord谩n; y he aqu铆, todo el camino estaba lleno de vestidos y de vasos que los siros hab铆an arrojado con la premura. Y volvieron los mensajeros, y lo hicieron saber al rey.
16 Entonces el pueblo sali贸, y saquearon el campamento, de los siros. Y fue vendido un seah de flor de harina por un siclo, y dos seah de cebada por un siclo, conforme a la palabra del SE脩OR.
17 Y el rey puso a la puerta a aquel pr铆ncipe sobre cuya mano 茅l se apoyaba; y le atropell贸 el pueblo a la entrada, y muri贸, conforme a lo que hab铆a dicho el var贸n de Dios, lo que habl贸 cuando el rey descendi贸 a 茅l.
18 Aconteci贸, pues , de la manera que el var贸n de Dios hab铆a hablado al rey, diciendo: Dos seah de cebada por un siclo, y el seah de flor de harina ser谩 vendido por un siclo ma帽ana a estas horas, a la puerta de Samaria.
19 A lo cual aquel pr铆ncipe hab铆a respondido al var贸n de Dios, diciendo: Aunque el SE脩OR hiciese ventanas en el cielo, 驴pudiera ser eso? Y 茅l dijo: He aqu铆 t煤 lo ver谩s con tus ojos, mas no comer谩s de ello.
