One early tradition links the family to Zarephath (where Elijah stayed with the widow).
A few midrashim even identify Jonah as the boy whom Elijah revived from the dead in 1 Kings 17.
Hismariam had received guidance to take herself to that place near the top of Mount Carmel where, many centuries earlier, Elijah the Prophet had bowed his head to the ground after building his altar of twelve stones in the name of the Lord.
The stories he told about Carmel quickened my spirit, and I felt called to go to the mount where Samuel and Elijah had taught – there to establish myself as a full initiate within the ancient Essene mysteries.
Elijah said: Summon you your priests, and your high priests, who have power through Baal and Ashtaroth and Dagon, and they and their Gods should try in a tournament against Jehovih.
When the tournament was ended, Elijah went upon Mount Carmel, and prayed for rain, and Jerub, with ten thousand times ten thousand angels, brought the winds from the north and south and east and west, and the moisture in the air above was converted into rain, and thus the long drought was ended.
1 Kings 18:19 - Elijah speaks these words directly to King Ahab
Elijah confronts King Ahab and challenges the prophets of Baal (and Ashtaroth is linked to Baal worship in the period).
Elijah prepares his altar, soaks it with water (three times), and prays.
Elijah later prays for rain, ending the drought (1 Kings 18:41–45).
Her actions challenge Faithist prophets like Elijah (~900 BCE) and contribute to historical conflicts.
Baal inspires Canaanite/Israelite conflicts, opposes Faithist prophets like Elijah (~900 BCE), and influences Assyrian/Babylonian events.
He opposes Faithist communities, inspiring conflicts with prophets like Elijah (~900 BCE, Book of Eskra references).
1. Near Hebron in the hills of Judah, Zacharias and Elizabeth abode.2. They were devote and just, and every day they read the Law, the Prophets and the Psalms which told of one to come, strong to redeem; and they were waiting for the king.3. Now, Zacharias was a priest, and in his turn he led the temple service in Jerusalem.4. It came to pass as Zacharias stood before the Lord and burned the incense in the Holy Place, that Gabriel came and stood before his face.5. And Zacharias was afraid; he thought that some great evil was about to come upon the Jews.6. But Gabriel said, O man of God, fear not; I bring to you and all the world, a message of good will, and peace on earth.7. Behold, the Prince of Peace, the king you seek, will quickly come.8. Your wife will bear to you a son, a holy son, of whom the prophet wrote,9. Behold, I send Elijah unto you again before the coming of the Lord; and he will level down the hills and fill the valleys up, and pave the way for him who shall redeem.10. From the beginning of the age your son has borne the name of John, the mercy of the Lord; his name is John.11. He will be honoured in the sight of God, and he will drink no wine, and from his birth he will be filled with Holy Breath.12. And Gabriel stood before Elizabeth as she was in the silence of her home, and told her all the words that he had said to Zacharias in Jerusalem.13. When he had done the service of his course, the priest went home, and with Elizabeth rejoiced.14. Five months passed by and Gabriel came to Mary in her home in Nazareth and said,15. Hail Mary, hail!
The prophets look to you and say, He is Elijah come again.10. Your mission here is that of harbinger; for you will go before Messiah's face to pave his way, and make the people ready to receive their king.11. This readiness is purity of heart; none but the purity in heart can recognise the king.12. To teach men to be pure in heart, you must yourself be pure in heart, and word, and deed.13. In infancy the vow for you was made and you became a Nazarite.
Behold, Elijah has returned!3. Behold the messenger whom God has sent to open up the way!
The kingdom is at hand.3. Behold the great key-keeper of the age stands in your midst; and with the spirit of Elijah he has come.4. Behold, for he has turned the key; the mighty gates fly wide and all who will may greet the king.5. Behold these multitudes of women, children, men!
Do here among your kindred all the mighty works that you have done in other towns.10. And Jesus said, No prophet is received with honour by the people of his native land; and prophets are not sent to every one.11. Elijah was a man of God; he had the power and he closed the gates of heaven, and it did not rain for forty months; and when he spoke the Word, the rain come on, the earth brought forth again.12. And there were many widows in the land; but this Elijah went to none but Zarephath, and she was blessed.13. And when Elisha lived, lo, many lepers were in Israel, but none were cleansed save one--the Syrian who had faith.14. You have no faith; you seek for signs to satisfy your curious whims; but you shall see not till you open up your eyes of faith.15. And then the people were enraged; they rushed upon him, bound him down with cords, and took him to a precipice not far away, intent to cast him down to death;16. But when they thought they held him fast, he disappeared; unseen he passed among the angry men, and went his way.17. The people were confounded and they said, What manner of a man is this?18. And when they came again to Nazareth, they found him teaching in the synagogue.19. They troubled him no more for they were sore afraid.
Yea, and more; a messenger whom God had sent to pave the way for what you see and hear this day.22. Among the men of earth a greater man has never lived than John.23. Behold I say, This man whom Herod bound in chains and cast into a prison cell is God's Elijah come again to earth.24. Elijah, who did not pass the gate of death, whose body of this flesh was changed, and he awoke in Paradise.25. When John came forth and preached the gospel of repentance for the cleansing of the soul, the common folks believed and were baptised.26. The lawyers and the Pharisees accepted not the teachings of this man; were not baptised.27. Behold, neglected opportunities will never come again.28. Behold, the people are unstable as the waters of the sea; they seek to be excused from righteousness.29. John came and ate no bread, and drank no wine.
Who do they think I am?23. And Matthew said, Some say that you are David come again; some say that you are Enoch, Solomon, or Seth.24. And Andrew said, I heard a ruler of the synagogue exclaim, This man is Jeremiah, for he speaks like Jeremiah wrote.25. Nathaniel said, The foreign masters who were with us for a time, declared that Jesus is Gautama come again.26. James said, I think that most the Jews believe you are the reappearance of Elijah on the earth.27. And John spoke out and said, When we were in Jerusalem I heard a seer exclaim, This Jesus is none other than Melchizedek, the king of peace, who lived about two thousand years ago, and said that he would come again.28. And Thomas said, The Tetrarch Herod thinks that you are John arisen from the dead;29. But then his conscience troubles him; the spirit of the murdered John looms up before him in his dreams, and haunts him as a spectre of the night.30. And Jesus asked, Who do you think I am?31. And Peter said, You are the Christ, the love of God made manifest to men.32. And Jesus said, Thrice blessed are you, Simon, Jonas' son.
No man comes unto God but by the Christ.9. The kingdom of the Christ will come; yea, some of you who hear me now will not pass through the gates of death until you see the kingdom come in power.10. For seven days the master and the twelve remained in Cæsarea-Philippi.11. Then Jesus, taking Peter, James and John, went forth unto a mountain top to pray.12. And as he prayed a brilliant light appeared; his form became as radiant as a precious stone;13. His face shone like the sun; his garments seemed as white as snow; the son of man became the son of God.14. He was transfigured that the men of earth might see the possibilities of man.15. When first the glory came the three disciples were asleep; a master touched their eyes and said, Awake and see the glory of the Lord.16. And they awoke, and saw the glory of the Lord; and more, they saw the glory of the heavenly world, for they beheld two men from thence stand forth beside the Lord.17. And Peter asked the master who awakened them, Who are these men who stand beside the Lord?18. The master said, These men are Moses and Elijah, who are come that you may know that heaven and earth are one; that masters there and masters here are one.19. The veil that separates the worlds is but an ether veil.
And then he called to Jesus and he said, My master and my Lord, this is the gate of heaven, and it is well that we remain.21. May we go down and bring three tents; a tent for you, a tent for Moses, and for Elijah one?
But Jesus answered not.22. And Moses and Elijah talked with Jesus on the mount.
The master only stood with them.31. As Jesus and the three came from the mountain top they talked about the meaning of the scene, and Jesus told them all; and then he said,32. Till I have risen from the dead tell not to any one what you have seen.33. But the disciples could not comprehend the meaning of the words, Till I have risen from the dead.34. And Jesus told them once again about his death, and rising from the grave; about the kingdom of the soul that was to come in glory and in power.35. But Peter said, The scribes have taught that e'er the king shall come Elijah must appear.36. And Jesus said, Elijah has already come; but scribes and Pharisees received him not;37. And men reviled him, bound him, cast him in a prison cell, and shouted with a fiend's delight to see him die.38. What men have done to him, that they will do to me.39. Then the disciples understood that Jesus spoke of John whom Herod slew.
why hast thou forsaken me?)4. The people did not understand the words he spoke; they thought he spoke the name Elijah and they said,5. He calls upon Elijah in his hour of need; now we will see if he will come.6. And Jesus said, I thirst.
And in effect, the topic of Elohim is the most important in the book, along with many other topics, like Satan, angels, Elijah, the cherubim—and the so-called kerubim in Hebrew—and so on.
Because Elijah got on this ruach; Ezekiel got on this ruach.
Ezekiel saw this ruach very, very close; he got on this ruach; Elijah got on this ruach.
So, Jacob's ladder with these beings arriving from space, landing, going back up into space through a hole in the sky, or Elijah being taken away in a chariot of fire through a whirlwind or the ruach flying around creating vortices of wind and terraforming the devastated planet.
If man had lived in this world without sin, he would not have needed to die, but would have been transfigured like Enoch or Elijah.
For this reason, when the Jews heard that the Christ said "Heli, heli, lamah zabactani", they said to themselves: "But, this one calls Elijah, what language is this"...
They did not understand, they believed that he called Elijah to come to save him...
Elijah (~900 BCE) challenges his influence.
“Elijah defied Baal’s priests.
Oahspe portrays Baal as a false god who deceives Arabin’ya’s mortals, builds a hadan heaven, and opposes prophets like Elijah.
He rules hadan heavens in Arabin'ya (Middle East) and Heleste (Greece), inspires violent worship in Canaan and Greece (as Baal or Zeus), incites wars and captivities against Faithists, opposes prophets like Elijah, and manipulates events like Assyrian and Babylonian invasions.
Ashtaroth prolongs idolatry in the Middle East, challenging prophets like Elijah and delaying Jehovih's worship.
Spiritual Challenge: Drujas represent the ongoing challenge of maintaining spiritual purity in Oahspe’s cycles, necessitating constant divine intervention by Gods like Thor, Osire, or prophets like Moses and Elijah (Book of Cpenta-armij, Chapter IV; Book of Eskra, Chapter IV).
Loo’is: Angels guiding mortal leaders, such as Elijah and other prophets, to fulfill Jehovih’s plan.
Eskra works through angels to inspire prophets like Elijah (returned as Nu-ghan to lift a curse) and others, who counter Baal worship and restore Faithist teachings (Book of Eskra, Chapter IV).
Elijah and Moses: Eskra supports the return of Moses as Elijah (Nu-ghan), who lifts a curse and counters Baal worship in Israel (~9th century BCE) (Book of Eskra, Chapter IV).
Elijah’s efforts restore Faithist principles amidst false god influence.
His management of false gods’ religions (Christianity, Islam) and support for prophets like Elijah ensure the continuity of Faithist principles amidst spiritual distortion.
Fire came down on a sacrifice, and rain ended a drought.Excerpt: “In the year 2635 B.K., Elijah… went forth preaching… Ahab… said to Elijah… Elijah answered him… Elijah stretched forth his hand unto Jehovih… And Jerub… caused a flame of fire to descend on the altar… the people feared… Jehovih is mighty!”
Elijah confronts King Ahab and challenges the prophets of Baal (and Ashtaroth is linked to Baal worship in the period).
Elijah prepares his altar, soaks it with water (three times), and prays.
Elijah later prays for rain, ending the drought (1 Kings 18:41–45).
Prophetic schools and figures: Both reference organized prophetic groups (e.g., schools of prophets at Naioth in 1 Samuel 19:18–24) and prophets like Elijah, Jonah, Amos, and Hosea opposing idolatry (1 Kings 18 and books of Amos/Hosea align with their roles).
Miracle details: Oahspe adds elements like angel Jerub causing fire for Elijah; Bible attributes miracles directly to God (1 Kings 18:38).
Bon: Lists Moses, Capilya, Chine, Joshu, Elijah.
Prophets: Moses (returned via Elijah, ~9th century BCE) counters Baal worship; Elijah lifts a curse on Nu-ghan.
Significance: This cycle sees the rise of Christianity and Islam under false gods, with true prophets like Elijah working to restore Faithism amidst political and spiritual turmoil.
Several divine messengers, such as Ezekiel, Malachi, Elijah, Moses, Jesus, and Kardec, were sent to Earth to deliver the divine message according to the understanding of each society.
The study emphasizes that the divine message, centered on the law of love, was delivered to humanity by various messengers, including Ezequiel, Malachi, Elijah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Kardec.
1 Kings 19:5–7“A malʾāḵ YHWH touched Elijah and said, Arise and eat… The malʾāḵ YHWH came again and touched him.”
2 Kings 1:3“But the malʾāḵ YHWH said to Elijah, Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria…”
The confrontation between Elijah and the prophets of Baal reflects a period when Baal worship was widespread in Israel.
These include Elisha and the prophet Elijah, whose name, Eliyahu, means “My God is El.” In II Kings 2:10-11, it is clear that Elijah has foreknowledge that he would be taken, and shordy he was pulled up into the heavens in a whirlwind by a “chariot of fire.” For three days, his countrymen looked for him but failed to find any sign of him Biglino has pointed out that: “This was an announced event, known in advance by the involved parties and therefore programmed by the Elohims who had decided to take with them this representative of theirs.
Wallis compared this event to Elijah’s ascension in a fiery chariot, suggesting that both narratives could be interpreted as involving advanced technology.
He drew comparisons with similar events in the Hebrew scriptures involving figures like Enoch, Elijah, and Ezekiel.
For example, the Elijah narrative in 1 Kings 18 depicts a dramatic contest between Yahweh and Baal's prophets.
In the year 2768 B.K., a young man, Elijah, was raised up from the branch of the college of prophets, and, under the inspiration of the angel Jerub, went forth preaching amongst the heathen, preaching not the Lord God, but Jehovih.
Ahab, a king, a worshiper of Baal, said to Elijah: What better is one God than another, or more powerful?
Elijah answered him, saying: I preach neither Lord nor God, but Jehovih, the Creator, who is Ever Present and Potent over all things.
Elijah said: Summon you your* priests, and your* high priests, who have power through Baal and Ashtaroth and Dagon, and they and their Gods should try in a tournament against Jehovih.
And now Elijah stretched forth his hand unto Jehovih, saying: If it be Thy will, O Father, give these people a sign of Thy Power!
When the tournament was ended, Elijah went upon Mount Carmel, and prayed for rain, and Jerub, with ten thousand times ten thousand angels, brought the winds from the north and south and east and west, and the moisture in the air above was converted into rain, and thus the long drought was ended.
This aligns Enoch with figures like Elijah and Moses, described in biblical texts as being taken rather than dying.
