Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 14. - So he departed from Elisha, and came to his master; who said to him, What said Elisha to thee? And he answered, He told me that thou shouldest surely recover. This, as already observed, was giving half Elisha's answer, and suppressing the other half. The suppressio veri is a suggestio falsi; and the suppression was Hazael's act, not Elisha's. Had Hazael repeated the whole of Elisha's answer, "Say unto him, Thou shalt surely recover; howbeit the Lord hath showed me that he shall surely die;" - Benhadad might have been puzzled, but he would not have been deceived.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(14) That thou shouldest surely recover.--Rather, Thou wilt certainly live, repeating Elisha's actual words, but not the tone and gesture which accompanied them.
