1. The Hidden Face of Eliyahu

   Rabbi Yitzchak Twersky

   תאריך פרסום: תשעב | |

   Eliyahu is one of the most misunderstood characters in all of Tanach. Misunderstood by his contemporaries, he has been misunderstood by students of Tanach throughout history (including in our day). This shiur offers a fresh perspective on this fascinating and important personality, shedding much light on the Eliyahu narratives in Sefer Melakhim.

2. The Narrative Integrity of Chapters 17-19 and its Components (Part 1)

   Appendix A

   Rabbi Elchanan Samet

   Chapters 17-19 are comprised of three stories: The drought, the test at Carmel and the Revelation at Chorev. The subject of the first story is the debate over Eliyahu's path and his prolonged insistence on maintaining his oath. The subject of the second story, in contrast, is how Eliyahu brought Israel back to faith in God.

3. The Narrative Integrity of Chapters 17-19 and its Components (Part 2)

   Appendix B

   Rabbi Elchanan Samet

   Chapters 17-19 should be regarded as a single, lengthy, literary whole. At the same time, though, we should not ignore the fact that this whole is composed of three semi-independent units which differ from one another. The third story cannot be read in such a way that it can be understood alone. Eliyahu's flight at the beginning of the story makes sense only against the background of the two previous stories - and particularly in light of the events at Carmel.
