2 Kings 5:23
"And Naaman said, Be content, take two talents. And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and laid them upon two of his servants; and they bare them before him."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And Naaman said, be content,.... Or be pleased; do not object to it: take two talents: a talent for each young man, which amounted to between three hundred and four

hundred pounds apiece: and he urged; pressed him hard, insisted upon his taking them, who might pretend a great deal of modesty, and a strict regard to his master's orders: and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments; for each young man: and laid them upon two of his servants, the servants of Naaman, not choosing to burden Elisha's servant with them; for such a quantity of money and clothes was pretty heavy: and they bare them before him; both for his ease, and for his honour.
