And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he had restored a dead body to life, etc.] Which was the Shunammite’s son: that, behold, the woman whose son he had restored to life cried to the king for her house, and for her land; came and presented her petition to the king at that very instant: and Gehazi said, my lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha restored to life; the very person I am speaking of.
