2 Kings 2:3
_ _ take away thy master from they head — an allusion to the custom of scholars sitting at the feet of their master, the latter being over their heads (Acts 22:3). |
2 Kings 2:3
And said — This was revealed to some of the sons of the prophets, and by them to the whole college. In the kingdom of Judah they had priest and Levites, and the temple service. The want of these in the kingdom of Israel, God graciously made up by these colleges, where men were trained up and employed, in the exercises of religion, and whither good people resorted, to solemnize the appointed feasts, with prayer and hearing, tho' they had not conveniencies for sacrifice. From thy head — Heb. from above thy head: which phrase may respect, either, the manner of sitting in schools, where the scholar sat at his master's feet. Or, the manner of Elijah's translation, which was to be by a power sent from heaven, to take him up thither. Hold you your peace — Do not aggravate my grief, nor divert me with any unseasonable discourses. He speaks as one that was himself, and would have them calm and sedate, and with awful silence waiting the event. |
2 Kings 2:3
And the (b) sons of the prophets that [were] at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from (c) thy head to day? And he said, Yea, I (d) know [it]; hold ye your peace.
(b) So called, because they are begotten anew as it were by the heavenly doctrine.
(c) That is, from being your head any more: for to be as the head, is to be the master, as to be at the feet, is to be a scholar.
(d) For the Lord had revealed it to him. |
