Elijah. the Prophet, native OF
Tishbeh in Gilead, bold and faithful,
stood before wicked king Ahab and
worse Jezebel, his queen, with the
word of the Lord, because of Israeps
sins, There shall not be dew nor rain
these years, but according to my
word. F."
Then began the three and a halt

ed the prophets; sndl. Obadiah, the
governor of the kings house, who
feared the Lord greatly, hid a hun
bred by fifties in two caves, and led
them with bread and water; and Eli.
iah fled from royalty which should
have protected him.
And the Lord told him to go to the
brook Cherith, that is before Jordan,
where he was fed with bread and meat
every morning andevening by ravens,
and drank of the brook. And when
the brook dried up, the Lord told him
to 90 to Zarephath, a city in Zidon,
to a widows house, who would sus-
tain him.
Although this woman had only a
handful of meal, and little oil, the
Lord promised her that it should last
until He sent rain And Elijah
brought more blessing to her home
when her son died, and was restored
to life through his prayer.
Elijah was in those parts more than
two years, and there was a sore fam

diah, go into the land, unto ell toun-
tains of water, and unto all brooks:
peradventure we may find grass to
save the horses and mules alive, that
we lose not all the beasts.
So they divided the land between
them to pass throughout it, Ahat
went one way by himself, and Oba.
