Elijah Lodging Restores Testament Widow
Elijah Restores Life,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a poignant and deeply moving scene from the Old Testament of the Bible, as depicted in this beautiful antique print from Mary Evans Picture Library. This historical image transports us back in time to a moment in the biblical narrative when the prophet Elijah, weary from his travels, sought refuge with a widow and her only son in the town of Zarephath. Stricken with grief and despair, the widow informed Elijah that she had only enough flour and oil left to prepare one last meal for herself and her son before they both starved. Moved by her plight, Elijah made a simple yet profound request: "Do not be afraid; go and sell the little oil and the flour, and buy a jar of oil and a measure of flour. And after this you may sell the oil and the flour, and make bread for yourself and your son. And you shall eat the bread in the presence of the man, and he shall eat it in your presence, so that you may know that I am the Lord your God, who has called forth kindness on your behalf in the presence of the widow." True to Elijah's word, the widow's meager supplies miraculously multiplied, allowing her and her son to survive. And in a moment of divine intervention, Elijah himself restored the life of the widow's son, who had fallen ill and appeared dead. This powerful image captures the essence of Elijah's compassion and the miraculous power of God, as the prophet tenderly cradles the lifeless boy and raises him back to life. With its intricate details and rich colors, this print serves as a testament to the enduring power of faith and the capacity for kindness and compassion, even in the most desperate of circumstances.
