2 Kings 2:13

13 et levavit pallium Heliae quod ceciderat ei reversusque stetit super ripam Iordanis

2 Kings 2:13 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 2:13

He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him
Which he had now no further need of, and Elisha had, having rent his clothes in two; and this falling into his hands was a token of his succeeding him in his office, and that he should have the double portion of his spirit:

and he went back, and stood by the brook of Jordan;
at the place where he and Elijah had passed over together.

2 Kings 2:13 In-Context

11 cumque pergerent et incedentes sermocinarentur ecce currus igneus et equi ignei diviserunt utrumque et ascendit Helias per turbinem in caelum

12 Heliseus autem videbat et clamabat pater mi pater mi currus Israhel et auriga eius et non vidit eum amplius adprehenditque vestimenta sua et scidit illa in duas partes

13 et levavit pallium Heliae quod ceciderat ei reversusque stetit super ripam Iordanis

14 et pallio Heliae quod ceciderat ei percussit aquas et dixit ubi est Deus Heliae etiam nunc percussitque aquas et divisae sunt huc atque illuc et transiit Heliseus

15 videntes autem filii prophetarum qui erant in Hiericho de contra dixerunt requievit spiritus Heliae super Heliseum et venientes in occursum eius adoraverunt eum proni in terram
