They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see.
The verse stands within the story of Israel's rescue when the Syrian siege was broken. The besieging army was seized with fear and fled, abandoning its encampment and the supplies stored there. In response the king dispatched men to confirm what had taken place. They went with two chariot horses to trace the Syrians and see for themselves.
