Term
When Elijah complained to the Lord, what was his response at Mt. Horeb?
Definition
His message was that it is not up to Elijah alone to complete the campaign against Jezebel, for there were 7 000 others in Israel who were still faithful. Elijah was to go from Sinai and anoint Elisha, Jehu and Hazael; men who would together complete the work that he had begun (1 Kings 19:11-18). So Elijah obeyed and took Elisha, son of Shaphat, as his attendant (19:19-21). Elisha in his turn anointed Jehu (2 Kings 9:6) and told Hazael that he would be king (2 Kings 8:13).
Term
Was this prophecy fulfilled?
Dogs would lick up his blood in the same place they had licked the blood of Naboth (21:19)
Definition
This was not fulfilled exactly in the case of Ahab himself, as he died in Samaria and dogs licked up his blood there rather than in Jezreel (22:37-38). The fact that the prophecy was not fulfilled as originally given is probably the result of Ahab’s repentance (1 Kings 21:27-29). The change in the divine program this brought about altered the way in which Elijah’s words came to pass.
