The document compares the stories of Elijah and Moses, noting their similarities such as miracles involving food and water. It then discusses prophecies of Elijah's coming again before the day of the Lord. Several passages are quoted discussing Elijah confronting King Ahab and prophesying the downfall of Ahab and Jezebel. The document ends by recounting Elijah being taken up to heaven in a chariot of fire, which Elisha witnesses.
![Ahab said to Elijah, "So you have found me, my enemy!"
"I have found you," he answered, "because you have sold yourself to do evil in the eyes of the LORD. 21 'I am going to bring disaster on you. I will consume your descendants and cut off from Ahab every last male in Israel—slave or free. 22 I will make your house like that of Jeroboam son of Nebat and that of Baasha son of Ahijah, because you have provoked me to anger and have caused Israel to sin.' 23 "And also concerning Jezebel the LORD says: 'Dogs will devour Jezebel by the wall of [ a ] Jezreel.' 24 "Dogs will eat those belonging to Ahab who die in the city, and the birds of the air will feed on those who die in the country." 25 (There was never a man like Ahab, who sold himself to do evil in the eyes of the LORD, urged on by Jezebel his wife. 1 Kings 21:21-25](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/chariot-100711130928-phpapp02/85/Elijah-Completion-6-320.jpg)
