2 Kings 2:18
"And when they came again to him, (for he tarried at Jericho,) he said unto them, Did I not say unto you, Go not?"

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And when they came again to him, for he tarried at Jericho,.... Waiting their return to hear the report they made: which when they had: he said unto them, did

I not say unto you, go not? assuring them it would be fruitless, and to no purpose; though this search of theirs served both to confirm the assumption of Elijah, and the truth of Elisha being a prophet of the Lord.
