2 Kings 7:14
"They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

They took therefore two chariot horses,.... Not five, but two only, and those the best, that drew in the king's chariot perhaps, and so were better fed, and fitter for

this expedition: and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, go and see; whether they are fled or not.
