A kind woman and her husband saw that Elisha traveled through their town a lot. They built a little room on their roof for him, with a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp.
Elisha said, “God will give you a son!” And He did!
When the boy grew older, he got very sick and died. The mom ran to Elisha. Elisha prayed, and God brought the boy back to life!
