2 Kings 6:29

So we boiled my son, and did eat him ,.... Thus what was predicted, by way of threatening, began to be accomplished, Deuteronomy 28:53 ; see Gill on Deuteronomy 28:53 , and of which there were other instances of a like kind at the siege of Jerusalem, both by Nebuchadnezzar and Vespasian:

and I said unto her on the next day ; after her child had been wholly ate up:

give thy son, that we may eat him ; according to agreement:

and she hath hid her son ; either to save him alive, or to eat him herself alone.
