Elisha
Elisha was God’s prophet who came after Elijah. Like Elijah, Elisha confronted Israelite kings who were sinning against God and he did miracles that God gave him power to do.
He only healed the skin disease of Naaman
Jesus is again referring to a story in the Old Testament. God healed Naaman because he obeyed what Elisha told him to do.
they were furious at him
The Jews did not want to hear that God had blessed any people besides themselves, so they were very angry at what Jesus said.
