What was israel's verbal response to the miraculous manifestation of fire on carmel?

The prophet Elijah was a mixture of emotions and convictions. At times he stands as a giant of faith and courage. On other occasions, he appears to wilt in the face of adversity. Perhaps that is why so many of us are drawn to him; we are cut from the same fabric. In this study, let us survey one of the grander occasions in the life of God’s great prophet, who was one of only two men never to experience death (2 Kings 2:11; cf. Genesis 5:24; Hebrews 11:5).

In approximately 935 B.C., the kingdom of Israel split. The northern segment of ten tribes continued to be known as “Israel.” The southern regime consisted of the tribes of Judah and Benjamin, together with a smattering from Levi and perhaps Simeon (cf. Genesis 49:7b).

In the 9th century B.C. (ca. 875-50 B.C.), during the reigns of Ahab and Ahazriah (a span of approximately 24 years), the northern kingdom was at the height of its economic and political prosperity; but it was on a spiraling spiritual departure from Jehovah, to be culminated by the brutal invasion of the Assyrians, and the deportation of Hebrews into Assyrian captivity. According to Assyrian records, some 27,290 captives were led away, in the most horrible fashion imaginable (Pritchard, 195).

Noble prophets of God, however, had warned the people repeatedly to repent of their sins (with a heavy focus on their idolatry), and return to the Lord. The messages fell on deaf ears for the most part. One of the courageous spokesmen to appear on the scene was Elijah, the prophet. Very little is known of Elijah directly. He was a Tishbite of the region of Gilead, the central region to the east of the Jordan River (sandwiched between Bashan and Moab).
