Who took the prophet Elijah's place after he died?

Why did Elijah kill all the prophets of baal?

Those prophets were 'sitting on the fence' (according to The Message paraphrased Bible).Elijah gave them a chance. Elijah told them to call upon their gods to 'light the fire'. They prayed and cried and called. But their god was 'not a god'. Elijah mocked and challenged them. Told them to call louder. Maybe their god was asleep; calling louder might wake their god; or on a trip, or perhaps sitting on the toilet (Contemporary English Version).Then Elijah had them bring buckets of water on the altar. Elijah prayed once, and boom, fire from heaven consumed the altar and everything. If that wasn't evidence that God approved of Elijah as his true prophet.Elijah told 'the people' to grab the prophets. So 'the people' did as told. They could have refused.Then Elijah had them killed. 1 Kings 18:40 according to the Amplified Bible adds: "[as God's law required]". So really that's the reason WHY Elijah had them killed: God's law required it. Elijah and 'the people' obeyed. I guess God didn't want any 'false' prophets around.The Bible states that in the future God will 'cut off' all evildoers. Why? Because they are 'evildoers'. It's really that simple. God requires obedience. At least that's what's in the Bible.

Who was Elijah servant in first kings chapter 19 verse 3?

It wasn't Ahab, here is 1 kings 18:40-50 40 Then Elijah commanded them, "Seize the prophets of Baal. Don't let anyone get away!" They seized them, and Elijah had them brought down to the Kishon Valley and slaughtered there. 41 And Elijah said to Ahab, "Go, eat and drink, for there is the sound of a heavy rain." 42 So Ahab went off to eat and drink, but Elijah climbed to the top of Carmel, bent down to the ground and put his face between his knees. 43 "Go and look toward the sea," he told his servant. And he went up and looked."There is nothing there," he said.Seven times Elijah said, "Go back." 44 The seventh time the servant reported, "A cloud as small as a man's hand is rising from the sea."So Elijah said, "Go and tell Ahab, 'Hitch up your chariot and go down before the rain stops you.' " 45 Meanwhile, the sky grew black with clouds, the wind rose, a heavy rain came on and Ahab rode off to Jezreel. 46 The power of the LORD came upon Elijah and, tucking his cloak into his belt, he ran ahead of Ahab all the way to Jezreel. this is from biblegateway.com the NIV of the bible.
