Contextual Overview

¹³ The king said, "Go and find him so I can send men and catch him." The servants came back and reported, "He is in Dothan." ¹⁴ Then the king sent horses, chariots, and many troops to Dothan. They arrived at night and surrounded the city. ¹⁵ Elisha's servant got up early, and when he went out, he saw an army with horses and chariots all around the city. The servant said to Elisha, "Oh, my master, what can we do?" ¹⁶ Elisha said, "Don't be afraid. The army that fights for us is larger than the one against us." ¹⁷ Then Elisha prayed, " Lord , open my servant's eyes, and let him see." The Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw that the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. ¹⁸ As the enemy came down toward Elisha, he prayed to the Lord , "Make these people blind." So he made the Aramean army blind, as Elisha had asked. ¹⁹ Elisha said to them, "This is not the right road or the right city. Follow me and I'll take you to the man you are looking for." Then Elisha led them to Samaria. ²⁰ After they entered Samaria, Elisha said, " Lord , open these men's eyes so they can see." So the Lord opened their eyes, and the Aramean army saw that they were inside the city of Samaria! ²¹ When the king of Israel saw the Aramean army, he said to Elisha, "My father, should I kill them? Should I kill them?" ²² Elisha answered, "Don't kill them. You wouldn't kill people whom you captured with your sword and bow. Give them food and water, and let them eat and drink and then go home to their master."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it came to pass, when they were come into Samaria, that Elisha said, Lord, open the eyes of these men, that they may see,.... So as to know where they were:

and the Lord opened their eyes, and they saw, and, behold, they were in the midst of Samaria; the gates being thrown open for them, and they led into the very heart of the city; for, no doubt, Elisha sent his servant before, to acquaint the king of Israel with what he was doing; who got a sufficient number of armed men to enclose them, and fall upon them, when put into his hands, as appears by what follows.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Kings 6:20. Open the eyes of these men — Take away their confusion of vision, that they may discern things as they are, and distinguish where they are.
