Gehazi, abusing his master's name unto Naaman, is smitten with leprosy And Naaman went and told his master Naaman, a commander of the army of the king of Aram, demonstrates his position and influence by directly communicating with his master, the king.

Naaman's willingness to seek help from a foreign source indicates his desperation due to his leprosy, a condition that was socially and religiously isolating. This action also shows his trust in the information provided by his wife's servant girl, highlighting the importance of faith and humility. what the girl from the land of Israel had said Persons / Places / Events 1. NaamanA commander of the army of the king of Aram, highly regarded and a valiant soldier, but he suffered from leprosy. 2. The King of Aram Naaman's master, who held a position of authority and influence in Aram (modern-day Syria). 3. The Girl from Israel A young Israelite girl taken captive, serving Naaman's wife, who shared the news of a prophet in Israel who could heal Naaman. 4. Israel The land where the prophet Elisha resided, representing God's chosen people and the place of divine intervention. 5. Elisha The prophet in Israel who ultimately provides the means for Naaman's healing through God's power. Teaching Points The Power of a TestimonyThe young girl's simple testimony about the prophet in Israel led to Naaman's journey of faith and healing. Our testimonies can have a profound impact on others. God's Sovereignty in Unlikely Circumstances Despite being a captive, the young girl played a crucial role in God's plan. God can use us in any situation for His purposes. Faith and Obedience Naaman's willingness to listen and act on the girl's words demonstrates the importance of faith and obedience in receiving God's blessings. Cross-Cultural Ministry Naaman's account shows that God's love and power are not limited by national or cultural boundaries. We are called to share God's love with all people. Humility in Seeking Help Naaman, a man of high status, humbled himself to seek help from a foreign prophet. Humility is essential in our walk with God and in seeking His intervention.(4) And one went in.--And he (i.e., Naaman) went in: scil., into the palace. Some MSS.: "and she went in and told." Thus and thus.--To avoid repetition of her actual words. Verse 4. - And one went in, and told his lord, saying. "One went in" is a possible translation; but it is simpler and more natural to translate "he went in," i.e. Naaman went in, and told his lord, Ben-hadad, the King of Syria. Thus and thus said the maid that is of the land of Israel. Being "of the land of Israel," her words had a certain weight - she had means of knowing - she ought to know whether such a thing as the cure of leprosy by the intervention of a prophet was a possible occurrence in her country.Parallel Commentaries ...
