It recounts several miracle stories attributed to the prophet Elisha: a widow's jar of oil multiplies supernaturally to pay her debts and save her sons from debt-slavery; a wealthy Shunammite woman who builds Elisha a room receives the promised birth of a son, who later dies and is raised back to life by Elisha through direct physical contact; and two additional miracles among a community of prophets \u2014 deadly wild gourds are rendered harmless in a stew, and twenty barley loaves feed a hundred men with food left over. The text is a scholarly or devotional resource for comparative textual study, not a translation or commentary, making it useful for those examining word-level differences between the Hebrew tradition (via KJV/Strong's) and the Greek. A distinctive feature is how the Shunammite woman is portrayed with unusual agency and self-possession \u2014 she initiates hospitality, challenges Elisha with grief rather than deference, and refuses to leave his side until her son is restored.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: 2 Kings: 2 Kings 4","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":4284}
