One again the circumstances for Elisha have changed. From being with and ministering to the Kings of Edom, Israel and Judah in matters that affected the whole nation, we next find Elisha with a poor widow in an unknown location. The widow’s trials were manifold. Not only had she lost her husband, she had also incurred a debt on his passing and her creditor was threatening to take away her sons as slaves (as the law permitted). How the woman came to know of Elisha is not told, but we are told that Elisha not only gave her advice (to collect jars) but also the plan for her to exit her trial (through the multiplication of her sparse oil into greater amounts). Elisha again points us to Jesus who paid our debt by His own blood!
