2 KINGS 2:20 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And he said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought it to him.”
Elisha requests a new bowl and salt — humble materials for divine healing. The new bowl (chadash) suggests purity; salt (melach) carries covenantal significance (a covenant of salt endures forever). Elisha's method contrasts with human effort; he uses simple objects as instruments of God's restorative power.
