Then she asked her husband for the use of an ass to ride to Mount Carmel for an interview with the prophet. The husband was greatly surprised that she should visit the prophet on a day that was neither new moon nor sabbath. From this incidental state- ment we gather that it was customary to go to the prophets on these holy days. Unfortunately we do not know what happened at such gatherings, but it is not unnatural to suppose that the prophet imparted some sort of religious instruction or stimul...us to those who came to him. So she started on her long ride of twenty-two miles or so to Carmel. She would communicate her sorrow only to Elisha, not to his servant Gehazi whom Elisha had sent out to meet her. In the roughness of the servant and the tenderness of the prophet we are reminded of the difference in the treatment meted by Jesus and His disciples respectively to those who brought to Him the little children (Mark lo^^'^-). Understanding the bitterness of her heart which came out in words that sounded almost like reproach, Elisha ordered Gehazi to go to the woman's house with all speed, and lay his staff on the child's face.
