“But Eliseus sat in his house, and the ancients sat with him. So he sent a man before: and before that messenger came, he said to the ancients: Do you know that this son of a murderer hath sent to cut off my head? Look then, when the messenger shall come, shut the door, and suffer him not to come in: for behold the sound of his master’s feet is behind him.”
On this verse:
“Murderer. Achab had slain Naboth, and Jezabel had destroyed the prophets. (Calmet)”
