Abstract
The sneezing reflex is a protective mechanism for the respiratory passage. It has been mentioned in the old holybooks as a bad amen when Eve gave Adam the apple, while Prophet Jacob who came later regarded it a good omen when God answered his prayers. The prophet Elisha considered it as a sign of regaining life after revival of the dead shonamite boy.
