Verse 26
And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made.
Dressed — Cut it in pieces, and laid the parts upon the wood.
From morning — From the time of the morning sacrifice; which advantage Elijah suffered them to take.
They leapt upon — Or, beside the altar: or, before it. They used some superstitious and disorderly gestures, either pretending to be acted by the spirit of their god, and to be in a kind of religious extasy; or, in way of devotion to their god.
