Elisha in the Bible

After Elisha in the Bible gives his instructions to Naaman about how to heal his leprosy, Elisha appears in Jericho where he causes an iron axe to swim in a stream. Later a band of Syrian marauders are sent to seize him, but are struck blind, and he misleads them to Samaria where they find themselves in the presence of the the Israelite king and his troops.

During the famine in Samaria, Elisha prophesied incredible plenty, which was soon fulfilled. We next find the prophet at Damascus. Ben-hadad the king is sick and Elisha prophesies the king's death and announces to Hazael that he is to be successor to the throne. Finally the prophet, after having filled the position for sixty years, is found on his death-bed in his own house. The power of the prophet, however, does not terminate with this death. Even in tomb, he restores the dead to life.
