Contextual Overview
8One day Elisha went to Shunem. A prominent woman who lived there persuaded him to eat some food. So whenever he passed by, he stopped there to eat. 9Then she said to her husband, “I know that the one who often passes by here is a holy man of God, 10so let’s make a small, walled-in upper room and put a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp there for him. Whenever he comes, he can stay there.” 11One day he came there and stopped at the upstairs room to lie down. 12He ordered his attendant Gehazi, “Call this Shunammite woman.” So he called her and she stood before him. 13Then he said to Gehazi, “Say to her, ‘Look, you’ve gone to all this trouble for us. What can we do for you? Can we speak on your behalf to the king or to the commander of the army?’” 14So he asked, “Then what should be done for her?” 15“Call her,” Elisha said. So Gehazi called her, and she stood in the doorway. 16Elisha said, “At this time next year you will have a son in your arms.” 17The woman conceived and gave birth to a son at the same time the following year, as Elisha had promised her.
