SEV Biblia, Chapter 5:6
Tomó también letras para el rey de Israel, que decían así: Luego en llegando a ti estas letras, he aquí que he enviado mi siervo Naamán a ti, para que lo sanes de su lepra.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 6. And he brought the letter to the king of Israel, saying , etc.] The contents of which were, so far as it concerned Naaman and his case, which are only observed, these: now when this letter is come unto thee ; was received by him: behold, I have therewith sent Naaman my servant unto thee ; the bearer of it: that thou mayest recover him of his leprosy ; meaning not he himself, but that he would recommend him to the care of a proper person, his prophet, and enjoin him to do the best he could for him; but the king of Israel mistook his meaning, as appears by what follows.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-8 - Though the Syrians were idolaters, and oppressed God's people, yet the deliverance of which Naaman had been the means, is here ascribed to the Lord. Such is the correct language of Scripture, while those who writ common history, plainly show that God is not in all their thoughts. N man's greatness, or honour, can place him our of the reach of the sorest calamities of human life: there is many a sickly, crazy bod under rich and gay clothing. Every man has some but or other, somethin that blemishes and diminishes him, some allay to his grandeur, some damp to his joy. This little maid, though only a girl, could give a account of the famous prophet the Israelites had among them. Children should be early told of the wondrous works of God, that, wherever the go, they may talk of them. As became a good servant, she desired the health and welfare of her master, though she was a captive, a servan by force; much more should servants by choice, seek their masters good. Servants may be blessings to the families where they are, by telling what they know of the glory of God, and the honour of his prophets. Naaman did not despise what she told, because of he meanness. It would be well if men were as sensible of the burden of sin as they are of bodily disease. And when they seek the blessings whic the Lord sends in answer to the prayers of his faithful people, the will find nothing can be had, except they come as beggars for a fre gift, not as lords to demand or purchase.
