Matthew Henry Presbyterian @wholebiblehenry

Elisha had, in this respect, a double portion of Elijah's spirit, that he wrought more miracles than Elijah. Some reckon them in number just double. Two are recorded in these verses - a miracle of mercy to Jericho and a miracle of judgment to Bethel, Psa 101:1. I. Here is a blessing upon the waters of Jericho, which was effectual to heal them.

2Ki 2:25 Elisha went from Bethel to Carmel (see at 1Ki 18:19), probably to strengthen himself in solitude for the continuation of his master’s work. He returned thence to Samaria, where, according to 2Ki 6:32, he possessed a house.
