- Jonah 4:8חֲרִישִׁית
As the sun was rising, God appointed a scorching east wind, and the sun beat down on Jonah’s head so that he grew faint and wished to die, saying, “It is better for me to die than to live.”
Brown-Driver-Briggs
[חֲרִישִׁי] adj. meaning wholly dub.; only Jon 4:8; a silent east wind is not suitable in context; still = sultry is mere conjecture
