The borrowed axe head floats
While the company of prophets cut timber beside the Jordan, a borrowed iron axe head fell into the water. Elisha cut a stick, threw it where the iron had fallen, and made the axe head float so it could be recovered (2 Kings 6:1-7).

1Now the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, “Please take note that the place where we meet with you is too small for us. 2Please let us go to the Jordan, where each of us can get a log so we can build ourselves a place to live there.” “Go,” said Elisha. 3Then one of them said, “Please come with your servants.” “I will come,” he replied.
