Commentary on 2 Kings 4:7

Theological / Devotional

Pay thy debt. The widow received more from the Lord than she had asked for. Her request was only that her sons be delivered from lives of servitude. But in her poverty, she still had many needs. God undertook to supply those needs. He constantly gives to men blessings far greater than they ask for themselves.
