II Kings 8:5
The Scripture
(5) And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he had restored a dead body to life, that, behold, the woman, whose son he had restored to life, cried to the king for her house and for her land. And Gehazi said, My lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha restored to life.
Chapter overview (whole chapter)
The Shunammite woman's land was restored to her by the king after Gehazi recounted Elisha's miracle, while Elisha wept upon foreseeing the great evil that Hazael would inflict on Israel after becoming king of Syria by smothering Ben-hadad. The chapter also records the wicked reigns of Jehoram and Ahaziah over Judah, both of whom walked in the ways of the house of Ahab.
