Commentary on 2 Kings 6:11

Theological / Devotional

Sore troubled. Every time a plan had been laid in the utmost secrecy, the enemy would know the details. If this had happened only once or twice, it might not have occasioned alarm, but when it came to be a regular thing, the king of Syria was troubled and was determined to learn the cause.

Which of us? As far as Benhadad was concerned, there seemed to be only one cause — a traitor in the camp. He was certain that information was leaking out through someone whose sympathies were with Israel rather than Syria, or who had been bought off to serve the enemy rather than his own nation. Would not someone among them reveal the traitor?
