00:00The idolatry that had corrupted an entire nation came to an end where there was no water.
00:06In the dry riverbed it had itself dried up.
00:22Go up, eat and drink, for I hear the sound of heavy rain.
00:27The king looked up at the sky, white, not a single cloud, but he went up and ate, because he
00:34no longer knew what to do with that man.
00:37Elijah climbed higher, alone, to the highest point of the mountain, where the sea could be seen on one side
00:45and the valley of Jezreel on the other.
00:48There he bowed down to the ground, his face between his knees and his cloak over his head.
00:55The servant stood a few steps away.
01:01Go up, watch the water.
01:08Nothing, only empty sky.
01:11Once more.
01:13Nothing, again, nothing.
01:17Nothing, four, five, six times the young man climbed the rock, looked out at the white sea, and returned with
01:25the same word.
01:27Again.
01:29Elijah did not rise.
01:31He did not lift his head.
01:33The seventh time the servant took longer.
01:39There's a cloud, small, coming up out of the sea, no bigger than a man's hand.
01:50Run!
01:51Tell Ahab to yoke his horses and ride down, before the rain shuts the road!
01:57The servant ran, and the cloud grew, slowly at first, then rapidly.
02:05It spread across the western sky like ink in water.
02:21My lord, he sends word.
02:23Harness the chariot and go down, before the rain closes the road.
02:30The horses, now!
02:40Ahab drove off in his chariot, whipping the horses, and Elijah ran, not like a man fleeing, like a man
02:49swept along.
02:52The hand of the Lord came upon him.
