Naaman was a great Syrian general, who had beaten the Israelites in battle. He was very wretched because he was a leper. Now Naaman’s wife had a little Israelite girl to wait upon her, who had heard of the wonderful things Elisha had done. This little girl had told her mistress that Elisha could cure Naaman. So Naaman went with his chariot and horses to see Elisha. Elisha told him to wash seven times in the river Jordan. Naaman would not do this at first, it seemed such a little thing. But he finally changed his mind, and washed in the Jordan and was cured. You see how much good one little girl can do.
