Was Elijah suicidal

Answer 1

No Elijah did not commit suicide, he was carried into heaven on a chariot.

Answer:

There was one incident in I Kings 19, when Elijah became "burned out" and weary in his commission... his life was being threatened by Jezebel, and in his condition of spiritual and physical exhaustion, prayed for God to take his life:

"...it is enough; now, O lord, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers." (I Kings 19:4)

But, he never assayed to take his own life.

Jonah, also, "wished upon himself to die" over the burden the Lord would have him bear... and even afterward:

"...O Lord, take, I beseech thee, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live..." (Jonah 4:3).

But, he, too, never was "suicidal."
