Take a lump.
2 Kings 2:20‑22• 20And he said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought it to him.
 21And he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, Thus saith the Lord, I have healed these waters; there shall not be from thence any more death or barren land.
 22So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the saying of Elisha which he spake. (2 Kings 2:20‑22)
;
2 Kings 4:41• 41But he said, Then bring meal. And he cast it into the pot; and he said, Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was no harm in the pot. (2 Kings 4:41)
;
Isa. 38:21• 21For Isaiah had said, Let them take a lump of figs, and lay it for a plaster upon the boil, and he shall recover. (Isa. 38:21)
the boil.The word {shechin,} from the Arabic {sachana,} to be hot, signifies an inflammatory tumour, or burning boil; and some think that Hezekiah's malady was a pleurisy; others, that it was the plague; and others, the elephantiasis, a species of leprosy, as one of the Hexapla versions renders in Job 2:7.
A poultice of figs might be very proper to maturate a boil, or dismiss any obstinate inflammatory swelling; but we need not discuss its propriety in this case, because it was as much the means which God chose to bless for his recovery, as the clay which Christ moistened to anoint the eyes of the blind man; for in both cases, without Divine interposition the cure could not have been effected.
• To all appearances the means had no value, but applied at the prophet’s word it is found to be the power of God unto salvation. (“Hezekiah's Illness: 2 Kings 20:1-11” by H.L. Rossier)
