2 Kings 6:10 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 6:10

And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God
told him, and warned him of
Sent spies thither to see whether the Syrians were there or not, and whether it was truth the man of God told him; for he had no hearty respect for the prophet, though he had been so serviceable to him:

and saved himself there, not once, nor twice;
escaped the snares the king of Syria laid for him, not once, nor twice only, but many times.

2 Kings 6:10 In-Context

8 rex autem Syriae pugnabat contra Israhel consiliumque iniit cum servis suis dicens in loco illo et illo ponamus insidias

9 misit itaque vir Dei ad regem Israhel dicens cave ne transeas in loco illo quia ibi Syri in insidiis sunt

10 misit rex Israhel ad locum quem dixerat ei vir Dei et praeoccupavit eum et observavit se ibi non semel neque bis

11 conturbatumque est cor regis Syriae pro hac re et convocatis servis suis ait quare non indicastis mihi quis proditor mei sit apud regem Israhel

12 dixitque unus servorum eius nequaquam domine mi rex sed Heliseus propheta qui est in Israhel indicat regi Israhel omnia verba quaecumque locutus fueris in conclavi tuo
