Eliah assembled the whole people along with to Carmelo Mount as well as to 450 prophets of false king Baal. He did that God was sending fire to the altar with water that he had prepared; he fled chased by the queen Jezabel to the desert and he was fed by an Angel so that it could walk 40 days on the desert up to coming to the mount Sinai. He realized miracles and the final Jezabel dramatist ventured. He named his successor to Elysian; ?If you see me when I?ll rise to the sky, I will spend to you my spirit and powers?.
