thus saith: 2 Kings 3:16, 2 Kings 7:1, 2 Kings 9:6

The barrel of meal: 1 Kings 17:4, 2 Kings 4:2-7, 2 Kings 4:42-44, Matthew 14:17-20, Matthew 15:36-38

sendeth: Heb. giveth

Reciprocal: 2 Kings 4:6 - And the oil Jeremiah 14:22 - Art Matthew 6:34 - for Mark 8:8 - they took

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For thus saith the Lord God of Israel,.... Whom the prophet perceived she had knowledge of, and faith in:

the barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail; that is, the meal in the barrel, and the oil in the cruse, by an hypallage, or change of words:

until the day that the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth; which was assuring her the rain would be sent, and that the Lord, who had the sole command of it, would send it; and that, until that time it should be sent, she would have no lack of provisions, and therefore need not scruple dressing for the prophet first.
