2 Kings 4:17
"And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season that Elisha had said unto her, according to the time of life."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And the woman conceived, and bare a son at the season that Elisha said unto her,.... Quickly after this she conceived, and became pregnant, and by that time the year

came round, she was brought to bed of a son: according to the time of life: when she had gone her full time to have a son born alive, and live.
