{2 Kings 8:4} And the king 4428 talked 1696 z8764 with x413 Gehazi 1522 the servant 5288 of the man 376 of God, 430 saying, 559 z8800 Tell 5608 z8761 me, I pray thee, x4994 x853 all x3605 the great things 1419 that x834 Elisha 477 hath done. 6213 z8804
the king:
As it appears not likely that the king would hold conversation with a leprous man; or, that, knowing Gehazi had been dismissed with the highest disgrace from the prophet's service, he would talk with him concerning his late master; some have supposed that this happened before the cleansing of Naaman. But it agrees better with the chronology to consider it as having taken place after that event; the king, probably, having an insatiable curiosity to know the private history of a man who had done such astonishing things. As to the circumstances of Gehazi's disease, he might overlook that, and converse with him, keeping at a reasonable distance, as nothing but actual contact could defile.
Gehazi:
"But Gehazi,ª the servantª of Elishaª the manª of God,ª said,ª° Behold,¹ my masterª hath sparedª°¹ Naamanª this¹ Syrian,ª in not receivingª°¹ at his handsª¹¹ that which¹ he brought:ª° but,¹¹ [as] the LORDª liveth,ª I will runª° afterª him, and takeª° somewhatª of¹¹ him. ... The leprosyª therefore of Naamanª shall cleaveª° unto thee, and unto thy seedª for ever.ª And he went outª° from his presenceª¹ a leperª° [as white] as snow.ª" {2Kg 5:20-27} + "And there were¹ fourª leprousª° men²¹ at the entering inª of the gate:ª and they saidª° oneª to¹ another,ª Why¹ sitª° we¹ here¹ until¹ we die?ª°" {2Kg 7:3} + "So they cameª° and calledª° unto¹ the porterª of the city:ª and they toldª° them, saying,ª° We cameª° to¹ the campª of the Syrians,ª and, behold,¹ [there was] no¹ manª there,¹ neither voiceª of man,ª but¹¹ horsesª tied,ª° and assesª tied,ª° and the tentsª as¹ they¹ [were]." {2Kg 7:10}
Tell:
"Andª he sentª° themª toª Bethlehem,ª and said,ª° Goª° and searchª° diligentlyª forª the¹ young child;ª andª whenª ye have foundª° [him], bring²° me² word again,ª°¹ thatª I¹ may comeª° and worshipª° himª also.²" {Mtt 2:8} + "Andª Herodª said,ª° Johnª have²° Iª beheaded:ª° butª whoª isª° this,ª ofª whomª Iª hearª° such things?ª Andª he desiredª° to seeª° him.ª" {Lke 9:9} + "Andª when Herodª saw²°¹ Jesus,ª he was exceeding² glad:ª°¹ forª he wasª° desirousª° to seeª° himª ofª a longª [season], because² he had heardª° many thingsª ofª him;ª andª he hopedª° to have seenª° someª miracleª doneª° byª him.ª" {Lke 23:8} + "He answeredª° them,ª I have toldª° youª already,ª andª ye did²° notª hear:ª° whereforeª wouldª° ye hearª° [it] again?ª willªª° yeª alsoª beª° hisª disciples?ª" {Jhn 9:27} + "Andª afterª certainª days,ª when Felixª cameª° withª his²¹ wifeª Drusilla,ª which wasª° a Jewess,ª he sent forª° Paul,ª andª heardª° himª concerningª the¹ faithª inª Christ.ª" {Act 24:24}
all the great:
"And he tookª°¹ the mantleª of Elijahª that¹ fellª° from¹¹ him, and smoteª°¹ the waters,ª and said,ª° Where¹ [is] the LORDª Godª of Elijah?ª and when he¹ also¹ had smittenª°¹ the waters,ª they partedª° hither¹ and thither:¹ and Elishaª went over.ª°" {2Kg 2:14} + "And he said,ª° Bringª° me a newª cruse,ª and putª° saltª therein.¹ And they broughtª° [it] to¹ him. ... So the watersª were healedª° unto¹ this¹ day,ª according to the sayingª of Elishaª which¹ he spake.ª°" {2Kg 2:20-22} + "And he turnedª° back,ª and lookedª° on them, and cursedª° them in the nameª of the LORD.ª And there came forthª° twoª she bearsª out of¹ the wood,ª and tareª° fortyª and twoª childrenª of¹ them." {2Kg 2:24} + "And Elishaª said,ª° [As] the LORDª of hostsª liveth,ª beforeª whom¹ I stand,ª° surely,¹ were it not¹ that² I¹ regardª° the presenceª of Jehoshaphatª the kingª of Judah,ª I would not lookª° toward¹ thee, nor¹ seeª° thee. ... And he said,ª° Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª Makeª° this¹ valleyª full of ditches.ª" {2Kg 3:14-16} + "Then he said,ª° Go,²°¹ borrowª° thee vesselsª abroadª¹ of¹¹ all¹ thy neighbours,ª [even] emptyª vessels;ª borrow not a few.ª°¹ ... And it came to pass,¹ when the vesselsª were full,ª° that she saidª° unto¹ her son,ª Bringª°¹ me yet¹ a vessel.ª And he saidª° unto¹ her, [There is] not¹ a vesselª more.¹ And the oilª stayed.ª°" {2Kg 4:3-6} + "And he said,ª° About this¹ season,ª according to the timeª of life,ª thou¹ shalt embraceª° a son.ª And she said,ª° Nay,¹ my lord,ª [thou] manª of God,ª do not lieª°¹ unto thine handmaid.ª ... And the womanª conceived,ª° and bareª° a sonª at that¹ seasonª that¹ Elishaª had saidª° unto¹ her, according to the timeª of life.ª" {2Kg 4:16-17} + "Then went he down,ª° and dippedª° himself sevenª timesª in Jordan,ª according to the sayingª of the manª of God:ª and his fleshª came againª° like unto the fleshª of a littleª child,ª and he was clean.ª°" {2Kg 5:14} + "The leprosyª therefore of Naamanª shall cleaveª° unto thee, and unto thy seedª for ever.ª And he went outª° from his presenceª¹ a leperª° [as white] as snow.ª" {2Kg 5:27} + "And the manª of Godª said,ª° Whereª fellª° it? And he shewedª° him¹ the place.ª And he cut downª° a stick,ª and castª° [it] in thither;¹ and the ironª did swim.ª°" {2Kg 6:6} + "And the manª of Godª sentª° unto¹ the kingª of Israel,ª saying,ª° Bewareª° that thou pass²° not¹¹ suchª a place;ª for¹ thither¹ the Syriansª are come down.ª ...

And it came to pass,¹ when they were comeª° into Samaria,ª that Elishaª said,ª° LORD,ª openª°¹ the eyesª of these¹ [men], that they may see.ª° And the LORDª openedª°¹ their eyes,ª and they saw;ª° and, behold,¹ [they were] in the midstª of Samaria.ª" {2Kg 6:17-20} + "But Elishaª satª° in his house,ª and the eldersª satª° with¹ him; and [the king] sentª° a manª from beforeª¹ him: but ere¹ the messengerª cameª° to¹ him, he¹ saidª° to¹ the elders,ª Seeª° ye how¹ this¹ sonª of a murdererª° hath sentª° to take awayª°¹ mine head?ª look,ª° when the messengerª cometh,ª° shutª° the door,ª and hold him fastª°¹ at the door:ª [is] not¹ the soundª of his master'sª feetª behindª him?" {2Kg 6:32} + "Then Elishaª said,ª° Hearª° ye the wordª of the LORD;ª Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª To morrowª about this timeª [shall] a measureª of fine flourª [be sold] for a shekel,ª and two measuresª of barleyª for a shekel,ª in the gateª of Samaria.ª" {2Kg 7:1} + "And the peopleª went out,ª° and spoiledª°¹ the tentsª of the Syrians.ª So a measureª of fine flourª was¹ [sold] for a shekel,ª and two measuresª of barleyª for a shekel,ª according to the wordª of the LORD.ª ...
