Question
Vague, I admit, but I remember a passage where Moses? or someone was possibly involved in a battle, and something happened with the person's eyes, and they were then able to see angels (and demons?) around them, on the surrounding hills or something - please help with this, I have been searching for the right passage and cannot find it.


Answer
Hi Jay,


Here is your passage, or at least I think that this is the one.

2 Kings 6:13-17
13 And he said, Go and spy where he is, that I may send and fetch him. And it was told him, saying, Behold, he is in Dothan. 14 Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about.  15 And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do?  16 And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them. 17 And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.
The King James Version, (Cambridge: Cambridge) 1769.

Is that the one?

I hope that this helps.

In Christ
