Gill's Notes on the Bible

And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood to view afar off,.... To have a view, if they could, of the assumption of Elijah to heaven, and be witnesses of it:

and they two stood by Jordan; on the banks of it, even Elijah and Elisha.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

They ascended the abrupt heights behind the town, from where they would command a view of the whole course of the river and of the opposite bank for many miles.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Kings 2:7. Fifty men of the sons of the prophets — They fully expected this extraordinary event, and they could have known it only from Elijah himself, or by a direct revelation from God.
