The Miracle of the Oil Vessels

Now there happened to be a certain woman who had been the wife of a member of the Guild of Prophets. She cried out to Elisha, “My husband who served you has died, and you know that your servant feared the Lord. But a creditor has come to take away my children into indentured servitude!”

So she had a talk with her husband. “Look here! I’ve learned that this is a holy and godly man who comes by here on a regular basis.

He responded, “What, then, is to be done on her behalf?” Gehazi answered, “Well, she has no son and her husband is growing old.”

Then she called to her husband and asked him, “Please send me one of the servants, along with one of the donkeys, so I can ride quickly to see that godly man. I’ll be right back.”

Please run out quickly and greet her. Ask her, ‘Are things going well with you? Are things going well with your husband? Are things going well with your child?’” She answered Gehazi, “Things are going well.”
