Take a lump.
2 R. 2:20‑22• 20Entonces él dijo: Traedme una botija nueva, y poned en ella sal. Y trajéronsela.
 21Y saliendo él á los manaderos de las aguas, echó dentro la sal, y dijo: Así ha dicho Jehová: Yo sané estas aguas, y no habrá más en ellas muerte ni enfermedad.
 22Y fueron sanas las aguas hasta hoy, conforme á la palabra que habló Eliseo. (2 R. 2:20‑22)
;
2 R. 4:41• 41El entonces dijo: Traed harina. Y esparcióla en la olla, y dijo: Echa de comer á la gente. Y no hubo más mal en la olla. (2 R. 4:41)
;
Is. 38:21• 21Y había dicho Isaías: Tomen masa de higos, y pónganla en la llaga, y sanará. (Is. 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)
