This passage contains three scenes describing three types of blindness. The first describes the king of Aram and deals with being blind to the plans of God because of ambition ? seeing is a condition of the soul. The second is directed at Elisha's servant and relates to being blind to the presence of God ? God is always present and works at times we do not expect and in ways that we cannot see until later. The third is being blind to the grace of God and describes Israel's king ? how easily we can forget who we are, why we are here, and that God loves all people.
