Gill's Notes on the Bible

And said to his servant,.... Whom some take to be the son of the widow of Sarepta, but he must be too young to be employed in such service as this was:

go up now; still higher on Mount Carmel; than where he was, even to the highest point of it:

look towards the sea: or the west, as the Targum, the Mediterranean sea, which lay to the west of the land of Israel:

and he went up and looked, and he said, there is nothing; there was nothing in the sky, or arising out of the sea, that looked like or foreboded rain:

and he said, go again seven times; till he should see something.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Tradition says that Elijah’s servant was the son of the widow of Sarepta 1 Kings 17:23.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Kings 18:43. Look toward the sea. — From the top of Mount Carmel the Mediterranean Sea was full in view.
