Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it came to pass, when they were come into Samaria, that Elisha said, Lord, open the eyes of these men, that they may see,.... So as to know where they were:

and the Lord opened their eyes, and they saw, and, behold, they were in the midst of Samaria; the gates being thrown open for them, and they led into the very heart of the city; for, no doubt, Elisha sent his servant before, to acquaint the king of Israel with what he was doing; who got a sufficient number of armed men to enclose them, and fall upon them, when put into his hands, as appears by what follows.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Kings 6:20. Open the eyes of these men — Take away their confusion of vision, that they may discern things as they are, and distinguish where they are.
