Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And he said,.... That is, Elisha to Gehazi, when he returned to him, and told him what the Shunammite said: what then is to be done for her? something he
thought should be done in gratitude, the favours they had received, and advises with his servant what could be thought of, he being one about the house: and Gehazi answered, verily she hath no child, and her husband is old; and so not likely to have any by him; as children were always very desirable by women, and especially in those days, the servant suggests, that no doubt to have one would be very acceptable to her.
