1 Reyes 17:17 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 17:17

And it came to pass after these things
Not only after the conversation that passed between the prophet, and the widow, but after they had lived together many days, a year or years, upon the miraculous provision made for them:

that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick;
that is, the son of the widow woman in whose house the prophet dwelt; the Jews say F8 this woman was the mother of Jonah, and that he was this son of her's:

and his sickness was so sore that there was no breath left in him:
it was a sickness unto death, it issued in it; for that he was really dead appears from all that follows.

1 Reyes 17:17 In-Context

15 Ella fue e hizo lo que le hab铆a dicho El铆as, de modo que cada d铆a hubo comida para ella y su hijo, como tambi茅n para El铆as.
16 Y tal como la palabra del SE脩OR lo hab铆a anunciado por medio de El铆as, no se agot贸 la harina de la tinaja ni se acab贸 el aceite del jarro.
17 Poco despu茅s se enferm贸 el hijo de aquella viuda, y tan grave se puso que finalmente expir贸.
18 Entonces ella le reclam贸 a El铆as:鈥斅縋or qu茅 te entrometes, hombre de Dios? 隆Viniste a recordarme mi pecado y a matar a mi hijo!
19 鈥擠ame a tu hijo 鈥攃ontest贸 El铆as.Y quit谩ndoselo del regazo, El铆as lo llev贸 al cuarto de arriba, donde estaba alojado, y lo acost贸 en su propia cama.
