Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

2 Kings 1:15-16

_ _ he arose, and went down with him — a marvelous instance of faith and obedience. Though he well knew how obnoxious his presence was to the king, yet, on receiving God’s command, he goes unhesitatingly, and repeats, with his own lips, the unwelcome tidings conveyed by the messengers.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 2 Kings 1:9-18.

(m) Thus the Lord gives boldness to his, that they fear not the threatenings of tyrants, who otherwise of themselves are afraid to do God's message.
