John Gill, on 2Kgs 6:21

“And the king of Israel said to Eliseus, when he saw them: My father, shall I kill them?”

“And he prepared great provision for them,.... Or a great feast, as the Targum; so obedient was he to the prophet's orders: and when they had eaten and drank; and refreshed themselves, which they needed, having marched all night and that morning from place to place: he sent them away; that is, the king of Israel dismissed them: and they went to their master; the king of Syria, but without the prophet Elisha they were sent to fetch: so the bands of Syria came no more into the land of Israel; not as yet, or for some time; or rather the sense is, that the Syrians came not any more in small bodies, as troops of robbers making excursions, and carrying off booty in a private manner, and by surprise; but afterwards came with a large army in an open hostile manner, as follows.”
