Contextual Overview
19 One day the people of Jericho said, "Elisha, you can see that our city is in a good spot. But the water from our spring is so bad that it even keeps our crops from growing." 20 He replied, "Put some salt in a new bowl and bring it to me." They brought him the bowl of salt, 21 and he carried it to the spring. He threw the salt into the water and said, "The Lord has made this water pure again. From now on you'll be able to grow crops, and no one will starve." 22 The water has been fine ever since, just as Elisha said. 23 Elisha left and headed toward Bethel. Along the way some boys started making fun of him by shouting, "Go away, baldy! Get out of here!" 24 Elisha turned around and stared at the boys. Then he cursed them in the name of the Lord . Right away two bears ran out of the woods and ripped to pieces forty-two of the boys. 25 Elisha went up to Mount Carmel, then returned to Samaria.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he went from thence to Mount Carmel,.... Where Elijah used to frequent, and where also there might be a school of the prophets; this, according to Bunting a, was fifty six miles from Bethel:
and from thence he returned to Samaria; the capital of the kingdom of Israel; there to bear his testimony against idolatry, to reprove for it, and reclaim from it; this, as the same writer says b, was thirty two miles from Carmel.
a Travels, &c. p. 206. b Ibid.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
