Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 15. - And he said, Call her. And when he had called her, she stood in the door; rather, the doorway. The same word in Hebrew stands both for "doorway" and for "door." It would seem that the woman came at once on being called, but, out of modesty and respect, would not advance beyond the entrance of the apartment.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(15) Call her.--The Shunammite is now summoned into the presence of the prophet himself.She stood.--Or, took her stand. Modesty, or reverence for Elisha, prevented her from going farther.
