Elisa
Elisha, he saw Elijah taken up in a chariot of fire, Elijah's mantle fell to the ground & Elisha put it on. Elijah told Elisha that if he saw him ascend, he would have a double portion of Elijah's annointing, so Elisha didn't let him out of his sight.
Elisha
I will take a guess that this is a biblical reference to the prophets Elijah and Elisha in 2Kings, where Elijah's mantle or cloak is passed to Elisha at the time that Elijah is taken up to heaven in a chariot of fire.
Elijah parted the water. (1 Kings 2:8) And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither, so that they two went over on dry ground.
The asthenosphere
Elijah's mantle symbolizes his prophetic authority and the transfer of his spiritual power to his successor, Elisha. When Elijah ascended to heaven, he left his mantle behind, which Elisha picked up, representing the continuation of Elijah's mission and the prophetic tradition in Israel. The mantle signifies not only the physical garment but also the divine calling and responsibilities that come with being a prophet. This act underscores the importance of mentorship and the passing of spiritual legacies in biblical narratives.
The mantle (the inner portion of the mantle to be exact).
No, the lower portion of the crust and the upper portion of the mantle together are not called the core. The core is a separate layer found beneath the mantle, and it is divided into the outer core and inner core based on composition and properties.

The mantle.
The mantle extends to the core-mantle interface at approximately 2900 km depth. Thus, the mantle contains the lower portion of the lithosphere, the asthenosphere, and the mesosphere. The crust is made of the upper portion of the lithosphere.
