Second Kings 4:42

A man from Baal Shalisha came to the man of God with twenty loaves of barley bread, baked from the first of the new harvest, and with fresh ears of his crop.
[The city of Baal Shalisha was originally called Shalisha, see 1 Sam. 9:4, but under Jezebel's influence it had been given the addition of Baal. From this pagan place now comes a godly man with his tithe. The word Baal itself means lord, and Shalisha literally means three, but also refers to diversity and growth. The word can be translated as "the Lord who multiplies."]
He [the prophet Elisha] said, "Give it to the people so they can eat."
