Contextual Overview
13 Then took he up the mantle of Elijah, which had fallen from him, - and returned and stood, on the brink of the Jordan; 14 and took the mantle of Elijah which had fallen from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where is Yahweh, the God of Elijah? And, when, he also, smote the waters, they were divided, hither and thither, and Elisha, passed over. 15 And, when the sons of the prophets who were in Jericho, over against him, saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah, resteth, on Elisha. So they came to meet him, and bowed themselves down to him, to the ground. 16 Then said they unto him - Lo! we pray thee, there are with thy servants fifty men, sons of valour - let them go, we pray thee, and seek thy lord, lest the Spirit of Yahweh have borne him away, and cast him on one of the mountains, or into one of the valleys. And he said - Ye shall not send. 17 But, when they urged him until he was ashamed, he said - Send. So they sent fifty men, and made search three days, but found him not. 18 And, when they came back unto him, he, having tarried at Jericho, he said unto them, Did I not say unto you, Do not go?

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when they came again to him, for he tarried at Jericho,.... Waiting their return to hear the report they made: which when they had,
he said unto them, did I not say unto you, go not? assuring them it would be fruitless, and to no purpose; though this search of theirs served both to confirm the assumption of Elijah, and the truth of Elisha being a prophet of the Lord.
