12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
The chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof; i.e. the best earthly defense of Israel. "In losing thee," he means, "we lose our great protector - him that is more to us than chariots and horsemen - the strength of Israel, against both domestic and foreign foes."
“The chariots and horsemen of Israel!” New Living Translation. When Elisha was in his last illness, King Jehoash of Israel visited him and wept over him. “My father! My father! I see the chariots and charioteers of Israel!” he cried. English Standard Version.
The chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof; who by thy example, and counsels, and prayers, and power with God, didst more for the defence and preservation of Israel, than all their chariots and horses, or other warlike provisions.
I will argue that the title רכב ישראל ופרשיו (“chariot of Israel and its horses”) has its origins in the Elisha tradition and was only secondarily applied to Elijah, a process in which the succession narrative in 2 Kgs 2:1–18 played a decisive role.
