Elisha requests "Pi-Shnayim" - a double portion of Eliyahu's spirit. Four interpretations of this request are raised: Double of what Eliyahu himself had; Elisha is requesting to preform double the miracles that Eliyahu preformed; Double the portion of the other Bnei Ha’Nevi’im; two parts of Eliyahu’s whole spirit thus receiving Eliyahu's recognition of Elisha as his successor and the continuer of his path amongst Am Yisrael.
