Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible
2 Kings 2 - Introduction
Elijah with his mantle divideth the waters of Jordan, and passeth over on dry ground with Elisha, who requesteth a double portion of his spirit. A chariot of fire takes up Elijah; Elisha divides the waters of Jordan with the mantle of Elijah, healeth the waters of Jericho, and curseth the children who mock him.
