Haydock's commentary
Cracknels. Hebrew nikkudim, "cakes full of holes," &c., Josue ix. 12. (Calmet)
Septuagint give a double translation, "cakes and raisins." Arabic, "fruits." Syriac adds "dried." It was customary to make presents to the prophets, 1 Kings ix. 7. (Calmet)
But these were mean, that the woman might not be known. (Du Hamel)
It is not said that Ahias deigned to receive them. (St. Jerome in Mic. iii.)
