Study
23 From the Book of 2 Kings is: 2 Kings 5:1-6:7
1.
Chapter 5. There are four important figures in this chapter: the
captive maid, Naaman, Elisha and Gehazi. What lessons may we learn
from each?
2.
6:1-7. Think about this incident in relation to Elisha's position as
a spiritual leader. Are there lessons here for the Christian church?
Notes
1.
5:17. The idea in Naaman's mind was that Jehovah, the God of Israel,
could not be rightly worshiped except except on Israelitish soil. His
faith was still very imperfect, as verse 18 also shows.
2.
5:22 'A talent of silver' i.e 'four hundred pounds' (Moffat), a very
large sum to be asked for two young men of the sons of the prophets.
