And he called Gehazi, and said, Call this Shunammite. So he called her. And when she was come in unto him, he said, Take up thy son.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 36 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.
Meditate on this verse and share your reflection or spiritual experience with the community. Your comments will enrich everyone's learning.
