2 Kings repeatedly demonstrates the wisdom of servants and the foolishness of kings. The kings appear undiscerning and hostile to God, while it's the servants who understand who God is and understand the reality of their moment.
That changes in 2 Kings 5 when a great general becomes a servant and a servant is overcome by greed. How easily we exchange what we have for what the world appears to. It is a trap, a trap that costs us far more than we receive in return.
