"And he said unto his father, My head, my head. And he said to his servant, Carry him to his mother." — 2 Kings 4:19 (ASV)

My head, my head. —The boy had a sunstroke. It was the hot season of harvest, and his head was probably uncovered.

A lad. — Rather, the young man. The servant waiting on him.
