TSNTyndale Study Notes:

5:5-6 The lavish gifts and the royal letter of introduction, common practices in the ancient Near East, underscored Naaman’s wealth, his value to the Aramean king, and Elisha’s reputation. Unlike Ahaziah, who sent his messengers directly to the temple of Baal-zebub in Philistia (1:2), the Aramean king followed diplomatic protocol by sending Naaman first to King Joram.
