Elisha’s Miracles of the Pottage and Bread

And so Elisha the man of God was able to call upon his God and so caused the life to be restored unto the dead child. And so he told his servant Gehazi to call the child’s mother; and when he had come, he told her to take up her son; and she went in and bowed herself to the ground before Elisha and took up her child and went out. And after that Elisha returned to Gilgal and found a famine in the land and the sons of the prophets went and sat before him. And he told his servant to cook a large pot of stew for the sons of the prophets. And one went out into the field to gather herbs and he found some gourd and gathered as many as he could carry, and minced them up and stirred them in with the pot of stew for they did not know what it was; so when they started eating it made them sick and they cried out and old the man of God, that there was death in the stew. And he told them to bring meat and put in the same sew that had made them ill and they did so; and there no longer any harm is the stew. And there came a man from Baalshalisha and brought the man of God bread of the first fruits, twenty loaves of barley and full ears of corn in the husk; and he said give unto the people that they may eat. And the visitor Asked, “Shall I set this before a hundred men?” And Elisha said again, “Give unto the people that they may eat; for thus saith the Lord they shall eat and shall leave thereof.”  So he set it before them; and they did eat and left over thereof.
