فَانْطَلَقُوا وَرَاءَهُمْ إِلَى الأُرْدُنِّ، وَإِذَا كُلُّ الطَّرِيقِ مَلآنٌ ثِيَابًا وَآنِيَةً قَدْ طَرَحَهَا الأَرَامِيُّونَ مِنْ عَجَلَتِهِمْ. فَرَجَعَ الرُّسُلُ وَأَخْبَرُوا الْمَلِكَ.

Elisha announced to him the word of the Lord: "At the (this) time to-morrow a seah of wheaten flour (סלת, see at Kg1 5:2) will be worth a shekel, and two seahs of barley a shekel in the gate, i.e., in the market, at Samaria." A seah, or a third of an ephah = a Dresden peck (Metze), for a shekel was still a high price; but in comparison with the prices given in Kg2 6:25 as those obtained for the most worthless kinds of food, it was incredibly cheap. The king's aide-de-camp (שׁלישׁ: see at Sa2 23:8; נשׁען למּלך אשׁר, an error in writing for נשׁ המּלך אשׁר, cf. Kg2 7:17, and for the explanation Kg2 5:18) therefore replied with mockery at this prophecy: "Behold (i.e., granted that) the Lord made windows in heaven, will this indeed be?" i.e., such cheapness take place. (For the construction, see Ewald, 357, b.) The ridicule lay more especially in the "windows in heaven," in which there is an allusion to Gen 7:11, sc. to rain down a flood of flour and corn. Elisha answered seriously: "Behold, thou wilt see it with thine eyes, but not eat thereof" (see Kg2 7:17.). The fulfilment of these words of Elisha was brought about by the event narrated in Kg2 7:3.
افتح المصدر ↗Relief is here brought to Samaria and her king, when the case is, in a manner, desperate, and the king despairing. I. It is foretold by Elisha, and an unbelieving lord shut out from the benefit of it (Kg2 7:1, Kg2 7:2). II. It is brought about, 1. By an unaccountable fright into which God put the Syrians (Kg2 7:6), which caused them to retire precipitately (Kg2 7:7). 2. By the seasonable discovery which four lepers made of this (Kg2 7:3-5), and the account which they gave of it to the court (Kg2 7:8-11). 3. By the cautious trial which the king made of the truth of it (Kg2 7:12-15). III. The event answered the prediction both in the sudden plenty (Kg2 7:16), and the death of the unbelieving lord (Kg2 7:17-20); for no word of God shall fall to the ground.

فَأَجَابَ الشَّيْطَانُ الرَّبَّ وَقَالَ: «جِلْدٌ بِجِلْدٍ، وَكُلُّ مَا لِلإِنْسَانِ يُعْطِيهِ لأَجْلِ نَفْسِهِ.
فِي ذلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يَطْرَحُ الإِنْسَانُ أَوْثَانَهُ الْفِضِّيَّةَ وَأَوْثَانَهُ الذَّهَبِيَّةَ، الَّتِي عَمِلُوهَا لَهُ لِلسُّجُودِ، لِلْجُرْذَانِ وَالْخَفَافِيشِ،
وَيُعَلِّقُونَ عَلَيْهِ كُلَّ مَجْدِ بَيْتِ أَبِيهِ، الْفُرُوعَ وَالْقُضْبَانَ، كُلَّ آنِيَةٍ صَغِيرَةٍ مِنْ آنِيَةِ الطُّسُوسِ إِلَى آنِيَةِ الْقَنَّانِيِّ جَمِيعًا.
لِذلِكَ نَحْنُ أَيْضًا إِذْ لَنَا سَحَابَةٌ مِنَ الشُّهُودِ مِقْدَارُ هذِهِ مُحِيطَةٌ بِنَا، لِنَطْرَحْ كُلَّ ثِقْل، وَالْخَطِيَّةَ الْمُحِيطَةَ بِنَا بِسُهُولَةٍ، وَلْنُحَاضِرْ بِالصَّبْرِ فِي الْجِهَادِ الْمَوْضُوعِ أَمَامَنَا،
وَمَاذَا تَفْعَلُونَ فِي يَوْمِ الْعِقَابِ، حِينَ تَأْتِي التَّهْلُكَةُ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ؟ إِلَى مَنْ تَهْرُبُونَ لِلْمَعُونَةِ، وَأَيْنَ تَتْرُكُونَ مَجْدَكُمْ؟
لأَنَّهُ مَاذَا يَنْتَفِعُ الإِنْسَانُ لَوْ رَبحَ الْعَالَمَ كُلَّهُ وَخَسِرَ نَفْسَهُ؟ أَوْ مَاذَا يُعْطِي الإِنْسَانُ فِدَاءً عَنْ نَفْسِهِ؟
لأَنْ فِي ذلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يَرْفُضُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَوْثَانَ فِضَّتِهِ وَأَوْثَانَ ذَهَبِهِ الَّتِي صَنَعَتْهَا لَكُمْ أَيْدِيكُمْ خَطِيئَةً.
اِطْرَحُوا عَنْكُمْ كُلَّ مَعَاصِيكُمُ الَّتِي عَصَيْتُمْ بِهَا، وَاعْمَلُوا لأَنْفُسِكُمْ قَلْبًا جَدِيدًا وَرُوحًا جَدِيدَةً. فَلِمَاذَا تَمُوتُونَ يَا بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟
وَكَانَ السِّقَاءُ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، وَالآنِيَةُ مُخْتَلِفَةُ الأَشْكَالِ، وَالْخَمْرُ الْمَلِكِيُّ بِكَثْرَةٍ حَسَبَ كَرَمِ الْمَلِكِ.
