Description
Elijah Hebrew Eliyahu, meaning “My God is Yahu or Elias Greek: Ηλίας Elías; Syriac: ܐܸܠܝܼܵܐ Elyāe; Arabic: إلياس or إليا, Ilyās or Ilyā) was a prophet and a wonder-worker who operated in the northern kingdom of Israel during the reign of Ahab (9th century BC), according to the Books of Kings in the Hebrew Bible. According to the Books of Kings, Elijah defended the worship of Yahweh over that of the Canaanite idol Baal. Yahweh also performed many miracles through Elijah, including raising the dead, bringing fire down from the sky, and taking the prophet up to heaven “by a whirlwind”. The Book of Malachi prophesies Elijah’s return “before the coming of the great and terrible day of Yahweh” making him a harbinger of the Messiah and of the eschaton in various faiths that revere the Hebrew Bible.
