Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 6. - And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. It did not occur to her that all the vessels had been already filled; so she asked her son for another, that she might fill it. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more; i.e. all the vessels that we have in the house are full; there remains no empty one. And the oil stayed. God will not have waste. If the oil had continued to flow, it would have fallen on the floor of the house, and have been of no service to any one. Therefore, when all the vessels were full, there was a sudden stoppage.

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6) Her son.--Probably the eldest. The LXX. has plural here and in the verb that follows.Stayed.--Heb., stood--i.e., halted, stopped. (Comp. Luke 8:44, ? ????? ????.) Bahr makes the word mean continued--i.e., to flow (!).
