TSNTyndale Study Notes:

2:20-22 Elisha used a new bowl (Deut 21:3) filled with salt (Lev 2:13; Ezek 43:24) to symbolize calling upon God to purify the people and the environment. Elisha made it clear that the Lord, not he or the salt, had purified this water.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) healed these waters

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_went_out to/towards spring the=waters and,threw there salt and=he/it_said thus he/it_had_said YHWH healed to_the,water the=these not will_belong from=there again/more death and,unfruitfulness )

This speaks of Yahweh making the bad water pure as if he healed it. Alternate translation: “made the waters pure”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

(Occurrence 0) there will be no more death or unfruitful land

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_went_out to/towards spring the=waters and,threw there salt and=he/it_said thus he/it_had_said YHWH healed to_the,water the=these not will_belong from=there again/more death and,unfruitfulness )

This refers to things caused by the bad water. This also can be written in positive form. Alternate translation: “there will be no more death or problems with crops caused by this water” or “from now on this water will bring life and help the land become fruitful”
