Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. And Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over his face, and said, O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof.
Eliseo había enfermado con la enfermedad que lo mataría. Cuando Joás, el rey de Israel, vino a visitarlo, lloró sobre el rostro de Eliseo y gritó: '¡Padre mío, padre mío! ¡Tú eres el carro y la caballería de Israel!'
El rey Joás lloró ante Eliseo moribundo, reconociendo que el profeta era la verdadera fortaleza de Israel.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This occurred near the end of Elisha's long ministry as a prophet in Israel, likely around 800 BC. King Joash recognized that Elisha had been Israel's spiritual guardian and source of divine guidance for decades. The phrase 'chariot of Israel and horsemen thereof' was the same cry Elisha himself had made when his mentor Elijah was taken up to heaven.
