2 Kings 8:4 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

The king talked with Gehazi, the servant of the man of God Or, who had been his servant formerly. The law did not forbid conversing with lepers at a due distance, but only the dwelling with them. Thus Naaman conversed with Elisha's family at a distance; and the lepers called to our Lord, as he went along the highway.

2 Kings 8:4
