TSNTyndale Study Notes:

13:20-21 Elisha’s death provides an opportunity to relate one final story about the prophet.
• The Moabite raiders apparently timed their incursions into Israel to coincide with the early harvest and to precede the summer’s heat.
• The dead man revived as his body touched Elisha’s bones, a sign that Elisha’s prophecy would come true. Weakened Israel (13:7) would revive and repel the Aramean invaders (13:25; 14:25; cp. Ezek 37:1-14).
