* the king.
As it appears not likely that the king would hold conversation
with a leprous man; or, that, knowing Gehazi had been
dismissed with the highest disgrace from the prophet's
service, he would talk with him concerning his late master;
some have supposed that this happened before the cleansing of
Naaman. But it agrees better with the chronology to consider
it as having taken place after that event; the king, probably,
having an insatiable curiosity to know the private history of
a man who had done such astonishing things. As to the
circumstances of Gehazi's disease, he might overlook that, and
converse with him, keeping at a reasonable distance, as
nothing but actual contact could defile.
