Królów II 5:1 Komentarz: Rashi & Tze'enah Ure'enah

וְ֠נַעֲמָן שַׂר־צְבָ֨א מֶֽלֶךְ־אֲרָ֜ם הָיָ֣ה אִישׁ֩ גָּד֨וֹל לִפְנֵ֤י אֲדֹנָיו֙ וּנְשֻׂ֣א פָנִ֔ים כִּֽי־ב֛וֹ נָֽתַן־יְהוָ֥ה תְּשׁוּעָ֖ה לַאֲרָ֑ם וְהָאִ֗ישׁ הָיָ֛ה גִּבּ֥וֹר חַ֖יִל מְצֹרָֽע׃

Naaman zaś, hetman wojsk króla aramejskiego, był to mąż znakomity u pana swego i wysoce poważany, gdyż przez niego dał Wiekuisty zwycięstwo Aramowi, a był ten mąż - ów bohater dzielny - trędowatym.

Tze'enah Ure'enah

“Naaman, commander of the army of the king of Aram” [5:1]. A commander named Naaman, who was a commander for the king of Aram, became a leper. The people of the king of Aram waged war and they captured a young girl from Israel and she served Naaman’s wife. The Judean young girl said to her mistress. Let the lord Naaman go to the prophet Elisha in Samaria, and the prophet will heal his disease. Naaman went to the king of Aram and told him what the young girl from Israel advised him in order to be healed. The king responded: go to the prophet and I will give you positive letters to the king of Israel. He went and took with him ten talents of silver. He also took with him six thousand gulden and ten sets of clothing. When the king of Israel read the letter that the king of Aram had written, that they should heal Naaman, the king of Israel became frightened. He tore his clothes and skin, that is, he tore keriah. He said that he is looking for false accusations against Israel. Am I God that he is writing me that I should heal Naaman of his leprosy?
