Elisha’s nullifying the poison of the wild gourds with flour is the same in principle as the Lord Jesus’ healing His disciples of the leaven of the Pharisees with Himself as the fine flour (Matt. 16:6-12).
See note 2 Kings 4:61.
Elisha’s nullifying the poison of the wild gourds with flour is the same in principle as the Lord Jesus’ healing His disciples of the leaven of the Pharisees with Himself as the fine flour (Matt. 16:6-12).
cf. 1 Kings 17:23; 2 Kings 8:1, 5; Heb. 11:35
Elisha’s resurrecting the dead from death, giving life to the dead (vv. 18-37), is the same as what the Lord Jesus did, both physically and spiritually (Luke 7:11-17; John 11:41-44; 5:25).
cf. Acts 19:12
As the man of God, Elisha behaved himself as God’s representative, as the acting God, on the earth (cf. note 1 Sam. 2:352). The New Testament believers should be the same (cf. note Acts 28:91 and note 1 Tim. 6:111a).
Elisha’s calling things not being as being in vv. 1-7, 8-17, and 42-44 (cf. Rom. 4:17*b) was the same thing in principle that the Lord Jesus did when He fed the multitudes in Matt. 14:14-21 and Matt. 15:32-39.
