2 Kings 4:2
Douay-Rheims
And Eliseus said to her: What wilt thou have me to do for thee? Tell me, what hast thou in thy house? And she answered: I thy handmaid have nothing in my house but a little oil, to anoint me.
Rashi
A jar of oil. Enough oil for anointment [=אָסוּךְ], and the ‘א’ is part of the root, like the ‘א’ of, “and my speech [=וְאַחְוָתִי] in your ears,” and the ‘א’ of, “the dread [=אִבְחַת] of those struck down by the sword.”
Hebrew and Aramaic words are the commentator’s citations of the sacred text; the English translation that follows each is the translator’s.
