2 Kings 6:28-29,

28And the king said unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered, This woman said unto me, Give thy son, that we may eat him to day, and we will eat my son to morrow.

29So we boiled my son, and did eat him: and I said unto her on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him: and she hath hid her son.



^^why is everyone avoiding adressing this? Dude said it's okay to boil my son and eat him, and then did so. That's normal conduct to you?

you don't know that whole story, the King is the King of a city that has little to no food....and there is a begging woman on the street as the king is passing and she says lets eat your son today and mine tomorrow, and they ate the kings son which was going to be killed anyways for working with a man of god, Elisha, and then the woman hid her son..which was also to be killed.

Elisha told the king God will feed them tomorrow if they be patient and he told him they will see food but they were to not eat, but the king had ate his son and then some drama happens GOD makes the Syrian camp hear noises thinkin it was an army coming to kill them and they run for their life leaving everything behind and so on... and then the next day(the tomorrow Elisha was talking about) the King hears of all the stuff left behind and he forgets about punishing the woman for not upholding her part of the deal and the king and the people of the city go to the Syrian camp and they take all the food and go back to the city and when The King is at the gate returning to the city Elisha is there and says "I told you so"= translated to modern times..

and GOD says "Now if I should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shal not eat thereof, and then the Kind dies=basically that right there is God saying i told you not to eat until today and he says if you were in heaven and could see down to earth would you be able to follow my directions, and the king says yes because he could see it but couldnt eat it....

then it tells of Elisha talking with the woman and blah blah blah

Facts I left out
-The King also had her son's head cut off
-Elisha brings the woman's son back to life "restored his life" as they say

Apexx you would be a great person to have Bible study with, I haven't read the Bible in a while until now and I thank you for that
