Now Naaman, captain of the army of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honorable, because by him the LORD had given victory to Syria; he was also a mighty man of valor, but he was a leper. Luk 4:27Rom 15:18Pro 21:31Deu 2:37Est 10:3Est 9:4Num 12:10-12Exo 11:3 The Syrians had gone out in bands, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little girl, and she waited on Naaman’s wife. 2Ki 6:232Ki 13:201Sa 13:17-18Psa 123:2Jdg 9:34 She said to her mistress, “I wish that my lord were with the prophet who is in Samaria! Then he would heal him of his leprosy.” Act 26:29Luk 17:12-14Num 11:291Co 4:82Ki 5:8Mat 11:5Mat 8:2-3
Someone went in and told his lord, saying, “The girl who is from the land of Israel said this.” 1Co 1:26-272Ki 7:9-11Jhn 1:42-46Jhn 4:28-29Mrk 16:9-10Mrk 5:19
The king of Syria said, “Go now, and I will send a letter to the king of Israel.” Jdg 14:122Ki 8:8-91Ki 13:71Ki 22:31Sa 9:7-82Ki 4:422Ki 5:22-23Act 8:18-20
He departed, and took with him ten talents 1 of silver, six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of clothing. He brought the letter to the king of Israel, saying, “Now when this letter has come to you, behold, I have sent Naaman my servant to you, that you may heal him of his leprosy.”
When the king of Israel had read the letter, he tore his clothes and said, “Am I God, to kill and to make alive, that this man sends to me to heal a man of his leprosy? But please consider and see how he seeks a quarrel against me.” 1Sa 2:61Ki 20:7Gen 30:2Deu 32:39Dan 2:11Hos 6:1Luk 11:542Ki 11:14
It was so, when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, that he sent to the king, saying, “Why have you torn your clothes? Let him come now to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel.” 1Ki 17:241Ki 18:36-372Ki 1:62Ki 5:152Ki 5:32Ki 5:72Sa 3:31Exo 11:8
So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariots, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha. 2Ki 3:122Ki 6:32Act 16:29-30Act 16:37-39Isa 60:14 Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, “Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall come again to you, and you shall be clean.” Jhn 9:71Co 6:11Lev 14:7Jos 6:4Mat 15:23-262Ki 4:412Ki 5:14Jos 6:13-16
But Naaman was angry, and went away and said, “Behold, I thought, ‘He will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the LORD his God, and wave his hand over the place, and heal the leper.’ 1Co 1:21-251Co 2:14-161Co 3:18-20Heb 12:25Isa 55:8-9Jhn 13:20Jhn 4:48Jhn 6:66-69 Aren’t Abanah and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Couldn’t I wash in them and be clean?” So he turned and went away in a rage. Mrk 1:92Ki 2:142Ki 2:82Ki 5:17Ezk 47:1-8Jos 3:15-17Pro 14:17Pro 19:11
His servants came near and spoke to him, and said, “My father, if the prophet had asked you do some great thing, wouldn’t you have done it? How much rather then, when he says to you, ‘Wash, and be clean’?” 2Ki 6:212Ki 13:142Ki 2:12Rev 7:141Pe 3:21Jer 38:7-10Job 32:8-9Act 22:16
Then went he down and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God; and his flesh was restored like the flesh of a little child, and he was clean. Job 33:25Luk 4:27Luk 5:13Zec 14:82Ki 5:10Ezk 47:1-9Jhn 2:5Job 31:13 He returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him; and he said, “See now, I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel. Now therefore, please take a gift from your servant.” Dan 2:47Dan 6:26-27Jos 2:9-111Ki 18:361Sa 17:46-471Sa 25:272Co 9:52Ki 5:8
But he said, “As the LORD lives, before whom I stand, I will receive none.” 2Ki 3:142Ki 5:202Ki 5:261Ki 13:81Ki 17:1Dan 5:17Gen 14:22-231Co 10:32-33
He urged him to take it; but he refused. Naaman said, “If not, then, please let two mules’ load of earth be given to your servant; for your servant will from now on offer neither burnt offering nor sacrifice to other gods, but to the LORD. Act 26:181Pe 4:32Ki 5:12Exo 20:24Rom 14:11Th 1:9 In this thing may the LORD pardon your servant: when my master goes into the house of Rimmon to worship there, and he leans on my hand, and I bow myself in the house of Rimmon. When I bow myself in the house of Rimmon, may the LORD pardon your servant in this thing.” 2Ki 7:22Ki 7:172Ki 17:35Jer 50:201Ki 19:182Ch 30:18-19Exo 20:5
He said to him, “Go in peace.” 1Sa 1:17Exo 4:18Mrk 5:341Co 3:21Sa 25:35Gen 35:16Heb 5:13-14Jhn 16:12
So he departed from him a little way. But Gehazi the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, “Behold, my master has spared this Naaman the Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought. As the LORD lives, I will run after him, and take something from him.” 2Ki 4:122Ki 4:312Ki 4:362Ki 6:312Pe 2:14-15Tit 1:71Ti 6:9-112Ti 4:10
So Gehazi followed after Naaman. When Naaman saw one running after him, he came down from the chariot to meet him, and said, “Is all well?” 2Ki 4:262Ki 9:17-22Act 10:25-26Act 8:31Luk 7:6-7
He said, “All is well. My master has sent me, saying, ‘Behold, even now two young men of the sons of the prophets have come to me from the hill country of Ephraim. Please give them a talent 2 of silver and two changes of clothing.’” 2Ki 5:5Act 5:3-4Jer 9:5Jhn 8:44Rev 21:81Ki 13:181Ki 20:351Ki 20:39
Naaman said, “Be pleased to take two talents.” He urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of clothing, and laid them on two of his servants; and they carried them before him. 1Ki 20:72Ki 12:102Ki 2:172Ki 5:162Ki 6:3Isa 30:6Luk 11:54 When he came to the hill, he took them from their hand, and stored them in the house. Then he let the men go, and they departed. 1Ki 21:16Jos 7:1Jos 7:11-12Jos 7:21Hab 2:6Isa 29:15Zec 5:3-4 But he went in, and stood before his master. Elisha said to him, “Where did you come from, Gehazi?” 2Ki 5:222Ki 20:14Act 5:3-4Ezk 33:31Gen 16:8Gen 3:8-9Gen 4:9Jhn 13:26-30
He said, “Your servant went nowhere.”
He said to him, “Didn’t my heart go with you when the man turned from his chariot to meet you? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and olive groves and vineyards, and sheep and cattle, and male servants and female servants? Col 2:51Co 5:32Ki 6:12Act 20:351Co 9:11-122Ki 5:16Mat 10:82Th 3:8-9 Therefore the leprosy of Naaman will cling to you and to your offspring 3 forever.” Exo 4:62Ki 15:5Num 12:101Sa 2:30-362Ki 5:12Sa 3:29Isa 59:2-3Jos 7:25
He went out from his presence a leper, as white as snow.
