Youth that mock Elisha are attacked by bears. 25:42 – Possible reasons for Elijah being taken to heaven and translated. 26:41 – Judah, Israel, and Edom join forces against Moab. They are in desperate need of water as they pass through the Negev desert. Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, directs his partners to the prophet Elisha who can provide the miracle they need. 30:22 – The king of Edom, desperate to escape Judah, Israel, and Edom, sacrifices his own son to his god Chemosh. He is able to escape. This story emphasizes that monolatry existed in the ancient Near East. 33:40 – Elisha multiplies the widow’s oil. If we are willing to give what we have to God, he will give us back so much more. 38:22 – Elisha raises the son of a widow woman from the dead. Prophets are types of Christ. 40:53 – Naaman comes to Elisha to be healed of leprosy, but then second-guesses Elisha’s instructions because they seemed too simple. 45:26 – One dip blessings compared to seven dip blessings. Faithfulness to God’s commandments brings miracles. 48:28 – Elisha refuses to accept a reward from Naaman for being healed. Gehazi secretly obtains the reward and is cursed with leprosy. 50:51 – Naaman desires to take home some dirt from the place of his miraculous healing. Cultural context helps us understand why he would want to do this. 54:11 – The sons of the prophets leave for more space. Elisha causes an ax to float. 57:02 – Syria wages war against Israel in an effort to capture Elisha, their secret weapon. The Syrians are smitten with blindness and are led away in peace. 1:02:29 – A seam in the text can be found in 2 Kings 6. Oral traditions that were written and later stitched together by editors leave evidence of their work. Israel, under siege by their enemy and experiencing a famine, is in need of a miracle. The Syrians leave their spoils behind and Elisha’s promise of plentiful food is fulfilled. 1:09:00 – Jezebel’s death fulfills the earlier prophecy of Elijah. Time vindicates the prophets.
