Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the sons of the prophets that were at Bethel,.... Or the disciples of them, as the Targum; here, though a place where one of Jeroboam's calves was set up, was a school of the prophets, perhaps founded by Elijah as a nursery for religion, and a check upon the idolatry of the times:
came forth to Elisha; out of their college: and said unto him, knowest thou that the Lord will take away thy master from thy head today? who was, as Abarbinel observes, the crown and glory of his head; or else this is said, as generally thought, in allusion to disciples sitting at the feet of their masters, and so they at the head of them; the rapture of Elijah was by a spirit of prophecy revealed unto them:
and he said, yea, I know it; being revealed to him in the same way:
hold your peace: not caring to continue any discourse with them on the subject, that his thoughts, which were intent upon it, might not be interrupted, and that his master might not know that he knew of it, and lest he should be snatched away from him, and he not see him, while discoursing with them.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Came forth to Elisha - It does not appear that any interchange of speech took place between รขยยthe sons of the prophetsรขยย (see the marginal reference note) and Elijah; but independent revelations had been made to the two รขยยschoolsรขยย at Bethel and Jericho 2 Kings 2:5, and also to Elisha, with respect to Elijahรขยยs coming removal.
From thy head - i. e. from his position as teacher and master. The teacher sat on an elevated seat, so that his feet were level with the heads of his pupils (compare Acts 22:3).
Hold ye your peace - i. e. รขยยSay nothing - disturb us not. The matter is too sacred for words.รขยย
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 2:3. Knowest thou that the Lord — Thus we see that it was a matter well known to all the sons of the prophets. This day the Lord will take thy master and instructer from thee.
