Seven times

Fewer Words Version: Elisha went back to Shunem and confirmed that the boy was dead. He shut the door and lay down on top of the dead boy's body. Then he put his mouth on the boy's mouth, his eyes on his eyes, his hands on his hands, and stretched himself on the boy's body. And the boy’s body waxed warm. He stretched himself upon him one more time. Then the boy sneezed seven times and opened his eyes. 2 Kings 4:32-35
