Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

At first glance this may seem like a strange miracle, that benefits only one person, and lends nothing to the narrative. And yet, personal, one-on-one miracles do happen, all through the Scriptures. Both Elijah and Elisha helped individual such as the widow with the oil, and Naaman the Leper, and nearly all of the Miracles of Jesus helped individuals rather than the general public.

If we look deeper, though, some interesting things come to light. During the Exodus, the Hebrews came upon a spring of water. They were very thirsty, but the water was bitter and undrinkable. Moses threw a branch of a tree into the water, and it became sweet.

The axe head was made of iron, and would never float naturally. It was heavy, and sank to the bottom. Like Moses did before him, Elisha threw a branch into the water. Suddenly, all the weight of the axe head melted off and it floated! A Christian Scholar might see this as a foreshadowing of the cross lifting off the weight of sin. John Bunyan, in his allegorical novel "Pilgrim's Progress" shows sin as a heavy back pack, so calling it a "weight" is not unusual.

In any case, even without applying symbolism or allegory, it was a very nice and considerate thing for Elisha to do for his servant! It showed compassion for someone who would be in BIG trouble if such a valuable tool had been lost!

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.
