Verse 17
1Ki 17:17 And it came to pass after these things, [that] the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness was so sore, that there was no breath left in him.

That the son of the woman. ] Whom the Hebrews hold to be Jonah the prophet; επεχω .
Fell sick. ] Miscentur tristia laetis. This dashed all her comfort.
That there was no breath left in him. ] He was downright dead. And therefore they do much elevate a this miracle who deny that this youth was really dead, but that he was in a swoon only, abusing hereunto that text in Daniel, Et anima non relicts fuit in me. This was the opinion of Rabbi Moses Cordubensis.
