Verse 36
And it came to pass, at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice ,.... Which the people of God at Jerusalem were now attending to:
that Elijah the prophet came near ; to the altar he had built, and on which he had laid the sacrifice:
and said ; in prayer to God:
Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob ; the covenant God of the ancestors of his people, though they had now so fully departed from him:
let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel ; and that there is no other:
and that I am thy servant ; a true worshipper of him, and his faithful prophet and minister:
and that I have done all these things at thy word ; restrained rain from the earth for some years past, and now had convened Israel, and the false prophets, together, that by a visible sign from heaven it might be known who was the true God; all which he did not of himself, but by the impulse, direction, and, commandment of the Lord.
