1 Kings 19:20

He ran — Being powerfully moved by God's spirit to follow Elijah, and wholly give up himself to his function. Let me kiss — That is, bid them farewell. Go — And take thy leave of them, and then return to me again. For what, &c. — Either first, to hinder thee from performing that office. That employment to which I have called thee, doth not require an alienation of thy heart from thy parents, nor the total neglect of them. Or, secondly, to make such a change in thee, that thou shouldst be willing to forsake thy parents, and lands, and all, that thou mayest follow me. Whence comes this marvellous change? It is not from me, who did only throw my mantle over thee; but from an higher power, even from God's spirit, which both changed thy heart, and consecrated thee to thy prophetical office: which therefore it concerns thee vigorously to execute, and wholly to devote thyself to it.
