Tomorrow Food Will Be Cheap in Samaria

Fulfilled

840 BC — Samaria

During the siege of Samaria when people were starving, Elisha prophesied: "About this time tomorrow, a seah of the finest flour will sell for a shekel at the gate of Samaria." An officer scoffed: "Even if the Lord opened the floodgates of the heavens, could this happen?" Elisha replied: "You will see it with your own eyes, but you will not eat any of it." The next day the Arameans fled, leaving abundant food. The scoffing officer was trampled to death at the gate. (2 Kings 7:1-20)
