Commentary on 2 Kings 6:3

Theological / Devotional

Be consent. That is, “be pleased,” or, “kindly consent,” to go with us. They had first asked for permission to go and do the work themselves, and now the invitation was extended to Elisha to accompany them.

I will go. Elisha was a man of the people. He was equally at home with kings and generals and with the workers at their daily toil. Never did he hold himself aloof. Wherever there was the opportunity to serve, wherever his presence was welcome, there he desired to be. The greater the leader, the greater the willingness to serve.
