Gehazi (Man living at the time of Divided Monarchy) - Fact Book

First, in plain English

Elisha's servant. When Elisha turned down Naaman's payment, Gehazi ran after the general and lied his way into silver and clothes, and Elisha, who knew without being there, gave him Naaman's leprosy for good.

Who this is

Gehazi was Elisha's servant, and after Elisha refused any payment from the healed general Naaman, Gehazi secretly chased Naaman down and lied to get silver and clothing for himself. Elisha, who somehow knew exactly what Gehazi had done even though he wasn't there, transferred Naaman's leprosy onto Gehazi and his descendants forever as punishment for the deception.
