This was a city in the land of Israel.
13:15-17 Elisha laid his own hands on the king’s hands: This act conveyed spiritual empowerment for the upcoming battle with the Arameans at Aphek.
• Aphek was situated east of the Sea of Galilee (1 Kgs 20:26), thus the eastern window faced the place where the battle would take place.
OET (OET-LV) And_he/it_said open the_window east_to and_opened and_ ʼElīshāˊ _he/it_said shoot and_shot and_he/it_said an_arrow_of victory to/for_YHWH and_arrow_of victory in/on/at/with_ʼArām and_fight DOM ʼArām in/on/at/with_ʼAfēq until make_an_end.
OET (OET-RV) Then he said, “Open that window facing east.” The king opened it and Elisha said, “Shoot.” So he shot the arrow and Elisha said, “That’s an arrow of victory for Yahweh and an arrow of victory against Aram. You will thoroughly defeat Aram at Afek.”
