Elijah comes first in various contexts, such as religious texts and traditions, primarily because he serves as a pivotal figure representing prophecy and the call to repentance. In Christianity, for example, he precedes Jesus as a forerunner, symbolizing the transition from the Old Covenant to the New. In Jewish tradition, Elijah is expected to return before the coming of the Messiah, emphasizing his role in preparing the way for divine intervention. His prominence underscores themes of renewal and the importance of faithfulness to God's covenant.
Elijah himself did not predict the coming of Jesus directly, but he is seen as a precursor in biblical texts. In the New Testament, Jesus refers to John the Baptist as the "Elijah" who was to come, fulfilling the prophecy from Malachi 4:5-6. This connection suggests that Elijah's role was to prepare the way for the Messiah, which Christians understand to be Jesus. Thus, while Elijah did not explicitly predict Jesus, his prophetic ministry is linked to the preparation for Christ's arrival.
