Contextual Overview
1Now Elijah the Tishbite, from the Gilead settlers, said to Ahab, “As the Lord God of Israel lives, in whose presence I stand, there will be no dew or rain during these years except by my command!” 2Then the word of the Lord came to him: 3“Leave here, turn eastward, and hide at the Wadi Cherith where it enters the Jordan. 4You are to drink from the wadi. I have commanded the ravens to provide for you there.” 5So he proceeded to do what the Lord commanded. Elijah left and lived at the Wadi Cherith where it enters the Jordan. 6The ravens kept bringing him bread and meat in the morning and in the evening, and he would drink from the wadi. 7After a while, the wadi dried up because there had been no rain in the land.
