2 Kings 6:31 - Additional Comments

This is a significant problem for many people. They look to a person for their spiritual strength, success, and hope. In the same way we saw this in verse 21. Many people may pray to the pope or dead saints or even Mary instead of God, and they might as well be praying to a false god. Also, many people look to their pastor or other religious leader for their support instead of God.
