His life.
That is, his living body; We may call the sick mans body a living body, though it be hard to say whether we should number him among the living or the dead. We read life put for the body which liveth, or whereby it liveth. (Psal: 88.3.) My soul (saith Heman) is full of troubles, and my life draweth nigh unto the grave; that is, I am ready to dye, and my body to be buried. He doth not say, he hath no great stomach to, but his life abhorreth bread.
