Through _, the miracolous healing of leprous Naaman demonstrates Yahweh’s supremacy and grace to all people, even those outside the covenant community.
The correct answer and explanation is:
The correct answer is Elisha.
Explanation:
Elisha, the prophet of God and successor to Elijah, played a key role in the miraculous healing of Naaman, a commander of the Syrian army, as described in 2 Kings 5. Naaman suffered from leprosy, a condition that not only caused physical suffering but also carried a stigma of uncleanness. Despite his high position, Naaman sought healing after hearing about Elisha from a servant girl in his household, who had been taken captive from Israel.
Naaman approached Elisha with great pomp, expecting an elaborate display of divine intervention. Instead, Elisha instructed him, through a messenger, to wash himself seven times in the Jordan River to be healed (2 Kings 5:10). Initially, Naaman was offended by the simplicity of the instruction and the perceived insult to his status. He questioned why Elisha did not personally meet him or call upon God with dramatic rituals, and he compared the waters of the Jordan unfavorably to the rivers of Damascus. However, at the urging of his servants, Naaman humbled himself and followed Elisha’s instructions. As a result, his flesh was restored, and he was healed completely.
This story illustrates several important theological themes:
- God’s Supremacy and Grace: The healing of Naaman, a Gentile, demonstrates that Yahweh’s power and grace extend beyond the borders of Israel. It foreshadows the inclusion of all nations in God’s redemptive plan, as promised to Abraham (Genesis 12:3).
- Faith and Obedience: Naaman’s healing came through simple faith and obedience to God’s word, delivered through Elisha. This highlights that human pride and preconceived notions must be set aside to experience God’s blessings.
- Prophetic Authority: Elisha’s role underscores the authority of God’s prophets as His messengers. Elisha’s actions were not about personal glory but about pointing Naaman to the true God.
Naaman’s acknowledgment of Yahweh as the one true God (2 Kings 5:15) emphasizes the story’s evangelistic impact, showing that God’s blessings can lead even outsiders to faith.
