Why Naaman Washed in the Jordan
2
Kings
5:1-19
|
We
see in this story a man returning home from a long journey to a foreign
land. He seems to be very excited and very eager to tell about his
journey. This
man's name is Naaman. He has been a leper. His body has been spotted with
a disease called leprosy. This disease could not be cured by any doctor,
and Naaman was unhappy. He did not know what to do. Then
one day someone told Naaman about God's prophet who lived in a country
near by. This prophet could make him well. Naaman
hurried at once to find the prophet of God. When he came to the house
where the prophet lived, a servant met him. This servant told him that he
must go down to the river of Jordan and dip himself seven times in the
water. Then he would be cured of his leprosy.
