Book Description
The stories of Elisha the prophet have received scant attention in recent years, perhaps because they are so enigmatic. This study places the Elisha material firmly within the narrative of Genesis-2 Kings, and examines the effect these stories have on the reader's perception of the role of the 'prophet'. Using the narratological theories of Mieke Bal, David Jobling and others, Bergen shows that the Elisha stories present prophetism in a negative light, confining prophets to a rather limited scope of action in the narrative world.

Book Description
The book of Kings is a unique source for understanding the history of Israel from the last days of the united kingdom under David to the eventual fall of the kingdoms of Israel and Judah. Presenting Israel's national history from a divine viewpoint, these narratives measure the kings of Israel and Judah not by the mark they leave on secular history, but by their "doing what is right in the Lord's sight." Embedded in this story are enduring lessons of the ways of God with his people in every age. In this commentary Donald Wiseman brings to this portion of Scripture his lifelong study of the archaeology, history, languages and documents of the ancient Near East. No other commentary on Kings offers as much historical background and well-considered judgment in such concise and accessible form. The original, unrevised text of this volume has been completely retypeset and printed in a larger, more attractive format with the new cover design for the series.

However, Prophet Elisha, one of the most anointed among God's Prophet died sick.In His lifetime, Elisha raised the dead without speaking a word. He merely laid himself on the dead body twice and the dead rose up. After his death, his dry bones raised back to life a dead man. Yet with all his anointing, he died sick. Why did he die sick? The mystery behind his death through sickness is unraveled in this publication. It is not God's plan for you or anyone to end like Elisha. You can avoid it. This book in your hands is a treasure. Guard it jealously. Study it diligently. Apply it purposefully. I see God's help has reached you at last. Make use of it and live. It is a new day for you in Jesus Name.

Book Description
This is a series of expositions of most of the passages in the first and second books of Kings which give the history of the two prophets, Elijah and Elisha. Some of these stories are among the most vivid and memorable in the Old Testament, and have never failed to prove themselves relevant and challenging in the preaching of the church. Others of them present what to many are the most difficult moral and intellectual problems both for the preacher and the listener.
