Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 13. - He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him; and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan; literally, the lip of the Jordan; that is, the brink of the stream, at the point, probably, where he and his master had crossed it.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(13) The mantle of Elijah.--See 2Kings 2:8, and comp. 1Kings 19:19. The badge of the prophet's office was naturally transferred to his successor.The bank.--Literally, lip. So ????? is used in Greek (Herod. ii. 70).
