Ibn Ezra on Genesis 31:32/אבן עזרא על בראשית ל״א:ל״ב
אלא יהיה. רק אהרגנו וי"א שהוא דרך תפלה, על כן מתה רחל בדרך, אם כן יודיעני מי התפלל על אשת פנחס:
1HE SHALL NOT LIVE. Because I will put him to death. Some say that this was a prayer47 56a; Sanhedrin 90b. and it was because of this utterance that Rachel died on the way.48 is a quote from Gen. 48:7. If this be so, let them tell us who prayed and thus caused the death of Phinehas’ wife?49
