2 Könige 8:5

Während er aber dem Könige erzählte, wie jener einen Toten lebendig gemacht hatte, siehe, da kam eben die Frau , deren Sohn er lebendig gemacht hatte, dazu und rief den König an wegen ihres Hauses und wegen ihres Ackers. Da sprach Gehasi: Mein H err und König, hier ist die Frau , und dies ist ihr Sohn, den Elisa lebendig gemacht hat!

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he had restored a dead body to life,.... Which was the Shunammite's son:

that, behold, the woman whose son he had restored to life cried to the king for her house, and for her land; came and presented her petition to the king at that very instant:

and Gehazi said, my lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha restored to life; the very person I am speaking of.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Kings 8:5. This is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha restored to life. — This was a very providential occurrence in behalf of the Shunammite. The relation given by Gehazi was now corroborated by the woman herself; the king was duly affected, and gave immediate orders for the restoration of her land.
