In the third year : This remarkable drought lasted three and one-half years by the fervent prayer of Elijah. Go, present yourself to Ahab : Earlier God told Elijah to hide himself. Now it was time to present himself. There is a time to hide and be alone with God, and there is also a time to present our self to the world. Some wish to always remain hidden when they should step up and present themselves.
Though it happened through the prayers of Elijah, his prayers were sensitive to the leading of God. And Ahab had called Obadiah, who was in charge of his house. Now Obadiah feared the Lord greatly.
For so it was, while Jezebel massacred the prophets of the Lord, that Obadiah had taken one hundred prophets and hidden them, fifty to a cave, and had fed them with bread and water. So they divided the land between them to explore it; Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself. And it shall come to pass, as soon as I am gone from you, that the Spirit of the Lord will carry you to a place I do not know; so when I go and tell Ahab, and he cannot find you, he will kill me.
But I your servant have feared the Lord from my youth. While Jezebel massacred the prophets of the Lord, that Obadiah had taken one hundred prophets and hidden them, fifty to a cave, and had fed them with bread and water : This man Obadiah was a brave man who stood for God and His prophets in a difficult time.
This may be the same Obadiah whose prophecy against Edom is recorded among the Minor Prophets. It is a little difficult to be certain, because there were 13 Obadiahs in the Old Testament.
What grace must have been at work to maintain such a fire in the midst of the sea, such godliness in the midst of the vilest iniquity! Now as Obadiah was on his way, suddenly Elijah met him : The drought was so severe that King Ahab himself and his trusted servant Obadiah were out searching for pastureland.
God arranged this unexpected meeting between Obadiah and the Prophet Elijah. What selfishness is here! Mules and asses before his people! Seeking for grass, instead of seeking for God!
How have I sinned, that you are delivering your servant into the hand of Ahab, to kill me? Obadiah knew that King Ahab conducted an exhaustive search for Elijah, to punish him for the drought that his prayers imposed on Israel. Obadiah feared that if he announced that he met Elijah and the prophet disappeared again, Ahab would punish Obadiah for letting Elijah get away.
Is that you, O troubler of Israel? Ahab was easily the worst, most ungodly king that Israel ever had. Yet he did not hesitate to blame the godly prophet Elijah for the problems of Israel. If Ahab would at least stop the active persecution of the people of God, God would relent in the drought.
But the wicked king of Israel found it easier to blame the godly prophet. According to his theology, it made sense for Ahab to blame Elijah. Ahab believed in Baal, so much so that his government promoted and supported Baal worship and persecuted the worshippers of Yahweh. Ahab believed that Elijah had angered the sky-god Baal and therefore Baal withheld rain.
Ahab probably thought that Baal would hold back the rain until Elijah was caught and executed. Instead, Ahab should have turned to the Word of God. Deuteronomy promised that drought would come to a disobedient Israel. This was a God-inspired plan that Elijah obeyed.
It was important to confront and eliminate these prophets of Baal before God sent rain to the land of Israel. It was crucial that everyone understand that the rain came from Yahweh, not from Baal.
So Ahab sent for all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together on Mount Carmel. If the Lord is God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him. Ahab sent for all the children of Israel : It is hard to know why Ahab did this, carrying out the instructions of Elijah. Perhaps he hoped that the people would be so angry with Elijah for the last three years of drought that this crowd would turn against the prophet. They loved the favor of King Ahab and Queen Jezebel, and they enthusiastically promoted the persecution of any true follower of Yahweh.
But over the last three years they had been severely humbled by Elijah and the drought sustained by his prayers. All their cries to the weather-god Baal were ineffective for three years. They hated this prophet of God who humiliated them and their sham priesthood so thoroughly.
No tiger ever watched its victim more fiercely! If they may have their way, he will never touch yonder plain again. He, alone and single-handed, was more than a match for all the priests of the palace and the groves, even as one lion scatters a flock of sheep.
How long will you falter between two opinions? In general, the people of Israel were in a spiritually lukewarm condition. They wanted to give some devotion to both Yahweh and Baal, but the God of Israel was not interested in such divided devotion.
The marriage partner has a legitimate claim to the exclusive devotion of their spouse. The appeal of Elijah made it clear that there was a difference between the service of Baal and the service of Yahweh. Perhaps in the minds of many, there was not a great difference — the only important thing was to have some kind of religion, and to be sincere about that, following your heart to whatever god your heart might lead you to.
Yet Elijah knew that it could never be this way. You either served Baal or you served Yahweh; there was a difference. How many more Sundays must roll away wasted? How many warnings, how many sicknesses, how many toilings of the bell to warn you that you must die? How many graves must be dug for your family before you will be impressed? How many plagues and pestilences must ravage this city before you will turn to God in truth? How long halt ye between two opinions? But the people answered him not a word : There was no objection and no repentance.
They lacked the courage to either defend their position or to change it. They were willing to live unexamined lives of low conviction. Elijah could so accurately see their hearts because he could see their actions. If God be God, follow hi m; if Baal, follow him. You are not decided in practice. Therefore let them give us two bulls; and let them choose one bull for themselves, cut it in pieces, and lay it on the wood, but put no fire under it; and I will prepare the other bull, and lay it on the wood, but put no fire under it.
Then you call on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the Lord; and the God who answers by fire, He is God. I alone am left a prophet of the Lord : This was not true and Elijah had reason to know that it was not true. In the recent past Obadiah told him that he sheltered prophets of God against the persecution of Jezebel and Ahab.
Let them give us two bulls; and let them choose one bull for themselves : In this proposed test, Elijah was careful to give the prophets of Baal every potential advantage. They picked the two bulls, and picked which one they would sacrifice and which one Elijah would sacrifice. It had to be supernatural in origin, and supplied by either Baal or Yahweh.
