Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

he wrapped his face: This he did to signify his reverence; for covering the face was a token of respect among the Asiatics, as uncovering the head is among Europeans. See note on 1 Kings 18:42. Exodus 3:5, Exodus 3:6, Exodus 33:23, Isaiah 6:2, Isaiah 6:5

What doest: 1 Kings 19:9, Genesis 16:8, John 21:15-17

Reciprocal: Exodus 2:15 - fled Deuteronomy 4:12 - only ye heard a voice 1 Kings 19:19 - his mantle 2 Kings 2:8 - his mantle Jonah 4:5 - Jonah Matthew 26:69 - Peter Mark 14:54 - and he Acts 7:32 - Then

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle,.... Through reverence of the divine Majesty he perceived was there, and through shame and confusion under a sense of his impurity, imperfections, and unworthiness, as the seraphim in Isaiah 6:2, and as Moses, Exodus 3:6, and went out and stood in the entering in of the cave; he attempted to come forth out of the cave upon the divine order, 1 Kings 19:11, but was stopped by the terrible appearances of the wind, earthquake, and fire, a little within it; but now he came quite out, and stood at the mouth of it, to hear what the Lord would say unto him:

and, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, what dost thou here, Elijah? the same question is here put as in 1 Kings 19:9, though there by an angel, here by the Lord himself.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Mantle - The upper garment, a sort of short cloak or cape - perhaps made of untanned sheepskin, which was, besides the strip of leather round his loins, the sole apparel of the prophet (compare Matthew 3:4). For the action compare the marginal references.

There came a voice unto him ... - The question heard before in vision is now put again to the prophet by the Lord Himself. Elijah gives no humbler and more gentle answer. He is still satisfied with his own statement of his case.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Kings 19:13. Wrapped his face in his mantle — This he did to signify his respect; so Moses hid his face, for he dared not to look upon God Exodus 3:6. Covering the face was a token of respect among the Asiatics, as uncovering the head is among the Europeans.
