2 Kings 4:13

4:13 Elisha said to Gehazi, ¹  “Tell her, ‘Look, you have treated us with such great respect. ²  What can I do for you? Can I put in a good word for you with the king or the commander of the army?’” She replied, “I’m quite secure.” ³ 

2 Kings 6:20

6:20 When they had entered Samaria, Elisha said, “O Lord, open their eyes, so they can see.” The Lord opened their eyes and they saw that they were in the middle of Samaria. ⁴ 

[4:13]  ¹ tn Heb “he said to him.”

[4:13]  ² tn Heb “you have turned trembling to us with all this trembling.” The exaggerated language is probably idiomatic. The point seems to be that she has taken great pains or gone out of her way to be kind to them. Her concern was a sign of her respect for the prophetic office.

[4:13]  ³ tn Heb “Among my people I am living.” This answer suggests that she has security within the context of her family.

[6:20]  ⁴ tn Heb “and they saw, and look, [they were] in the middle of Samaria.”
