Verse 31
And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob ,.... Which he might very easily come at from the mountain:
unto whom the word of the Lord came, saying, Israel shall be thy name , which signifies one that has power with God, as Jacob had, when the word came to him to make a change in his name at Penuel, Genesis 32:28 , and as Elijah hoped and believed he should have at this time, being a prophet, and a worshipper of Israel's God.
