What did Elijah do?
Eliyahu (Elijah) did a number of things, including rebuking Achav (Ahab) and predicting Achav's death. Probably the most memorable thing was when he had all of the idolatrous …prophets gather. He challenged them to invoke their false god and perform a miracle, and they failed. He then called upon the true God, who did do a miracle. Immediately after, the false prophets were slain. (MORE)

What are the prophecies of Elijah?
The life and ministry of Elijah is recorded in 1 Kings 17 through to 2 Kings 1. The first of his prophecies is recorded in: 1 Kings 17:1 (King James Version) 1An…d Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word. This prophecy was fulfilled in the terrible famine which followed, thus revealing Elijah to be a true prophet of God. Another prophecy, occurring during the famine relates to God's provision both for Elijah and for the poor widow who fed him for part of this time. This second prophecy was fulfilled by the constant provision of food out of the same container for 'many days.' (see v 15) 1 Kings 17:14 14For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sends rain upon the earth.

What was the message of Elijah?
A:The story of Elijah has several parallels with the story of Moses. They both parted the waters with a staff - Moses parted the Red Sea, while Elijah parted the River Jordan.… Most especially, they both involve solar imagery, suggesting the intrusion of more ancient material based on the sun god. For example, Moses sent Joshua with an army to fight the Amalek, and while Moses held his hand above his head Joshua prevailed, but if he lowered his hand the Amalek would prevail, until the going down of the sun (Exodus 17:9-13). Solar imagery in the story of Elijah includes the passage where he challenged the king to let the opposing priests compete with him to call upon their gods to start a fire under a bullock carcass, a feat that only he could perform. Twice, Elijah called down fire from heaven onto opposing soldiers. A chariot of fire and horses of fire passed by before Elijah was taken up to heaven in a whirlwind. The motif of a chariot of fire was widely associated with the sun god. While Elijah did not achieve any great moral or religious objectives in his confrontations with Ahab, his message in the Bible is his opposition to the god Baal, worshipped by Ahab and Jezebel. The purpose of the challenge in which he lit a fire on an altar was to show the impotence of Baal's priests. His slaughter of the priests serves to emphasise this, although strangely the Bible says that the people continued to worship Baal as before. (MORE)

What did the prophet Elijah do?
The Acts of Elijah are recounted in the latter part of 1 Kings. The most famous story that concerns Elijah is when challenged the Prophets of Ba'al on Mount Carmel to prove th…at their god was real. The contest involved both Elijah and the Ba'al Prophets preparing sacrifices to their Gods (Hashem and Ba'al), but requiring the god to provide the fire. Elijah even watered down his sacrifice before a flaming ball came out of the sky and enveloped the sacrifice. The Prophets of Ba'al were less lucky. Failing to show their god's presence was a death sentence. (MORE)

Did Elijah died?
Assuming you mean the biblical prophet ... the Bible actually goes out of its way to avoid saying outright that he died, or using one of the usual euphemisms (such as "slept w…ith his fathers"). Instead it refers to him as being "lifted up" by a whirlwind, implying that he was taken bodily into heaven without having to die. (MORE)
