And he went up, and lay upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and stretched himself upon the child; and the flesh of the child waxed warm.

Verse 34 is found in chapter 4 of 2 Kings. The Shunammite woman’s son becomes ill and dies, transforming the promise previously received into a profound crisis. The woman seeks Elisha and refuses to accept a superficial solution. The prophet prays and acts persistently until the child returns to life. The episode is one of the clearest expressions of God’s life-giving power in Elisha’s ministry. It also develops an important narrative tension: receiving a gift from God does not automatically eliminate suffering. The woman’s faith appears in a situation where the promise seems to have been nullified, and restoration again confirms the authority of the prophetic word.
