Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Kings 5:1-27

SECTION 8. The Wonder-working Ministry Of Elisha (2 Kings 4:1 to 2 Kings 8:15 ) It will be noted that from this point on, until 2 Kings 8:15, no king of Israel is mentioned by name, even though, for example, Naaman’s name is given in chapter 5, and Ben-hadad, the king of Aram, is mentioned in 2 Kings 6:24; 2 Kings 8:7. (The reign of Jehoram then recommences in 2 Kings 8:16). It is clear that the prophetic author was concerned at this point that our attention should be taken away from the... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Kings 5:1-27

2 Kings 5:1-Daniel : . Naaman Healed of his Leprosy.— This story, familiar to all, presupposes a time of peace between Israel and Syria. As in 1 Kings 20, the king of Syria addresses the king of Israel (unnamed here) as his vassal ( 2 Kings 5:6 ff.). Elisha was living in Samaria, apparently in his own house. Naaman, on being healed, returned to Elisha, who refused to take any present, using Elijah’ s formula ( 1 Kings 17:1 *). Naaman thereupon declared himself a worshipper of Yahweh (it is... read more

NAAMAN, THE SYRIAN LEPERCRITICAL AND EXPLANATORY NOTES.—2 Kings 5:1. Naaman was a great man with his master—גִּבּוֹר חַיִל does not refer to mere physical force, but to the high esteem in which he was held at Court. Lord had given deliverances unto Syria—Not victories only, but national prestige, advantages, and prosperity. 2 Kings 5:2. By companies—Maranding bands. These went out on predatory incursions. 2 Kings 5:3. Would God—אַחֲלַי should be (as in Psalms 119:5), “O! that,” an optative... read more

2 Kings 5:1-14 The little Hebrew maid was torn from her mother and her playmates at the age of seven or eight, and hurried amid all the alarms of war to a foreign land, robbed at once of home, of freedom, and of childhood. Notice: I. Her faith in God. In that land of idols and idolaters she was not ashamed to own her Lord. She had full confidence that Israel's God could cure the leper. II. Her faithfulness. She had so much of the true faith that it filled her whole nature, and made her faithful... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 5:1-27

Now Naaman was the captain of the host of Syria, he was a great man with his master, he was honorable, because the LORD had actually helped him to subdue many nations. He was a mighty man and very brave, but he was a leper. And the Syrians had gone out by companies, and brought away captives out of the land of Israel and a little maid happened to be the servant of his wife. And she said, It's too bad your husband isn't with the prophet there in Israel, because he could heal him of his leprosy.... read more

2 Kings 5:8 . When Elisha heard that the king had rent his clothes, he laid the case before the Lord and received his instruction how to proceed. 2 Kings 5:10 . Elisha sent a messenger, to cure Naaman first of his pride, before he cleansed his leprosy. Faith must act on the promise; the woman believed that she must touch the hem of the Saviour’s garment. 2 Kings 5:12 . Abana rises in the mountains of Anti-libanus, and waters Damascus.

2 Kings 5:1-19Now Naaman, captain of the host of the King of Syria.The History of Naaman’s disease and cure; illustrative of certain forces in the life of manI. The force of worldly position. Why all the interest displayed in his own country, and in Israel, concerning Naaman’s disease? The first verse of this chapter explains it. “Now Naaman, captain of the host of Syria, was a great man,” etc. Perhaps there were many men in his own district who were suffering from leprosy, yet little interest... read more

2 Kings 5:2-4And the Syrians had gone out by companies.The Hebrew maidI. Her faith in God. Plainly she had very strong faith; and it was of the right sort. For there are wrong kinds of faith. Mere belief even of the truth may be perfectly powerless. The question is, what side does ]our belief make you take? It should be a living trust in a living person, a whole faith in the whole Saviour. Notice the beautiful signs of this girl’s faith. In that land of idols and idolaters she was not ashamed... read more

2Ki 5:2 And the Syrians had gone out by companies, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maid; and she waited on Naaman’s wife. Ver. 2. A little maid; and she waited on Naaman’ s wife.] The captivity of this poor Hebrew girl is a means to make Naaman, the greatest lord of Syria, a subject to God. a It is good to acquaint our children with the works of God, with the praises of his prophets.
