Commentary on 1 Kings 18:38

Theological / Devotional

Then the fire. With startling suddenness, like a great flashing of lightning, fire came down and consumed the sacrifice, and even the stones of the altar. Never before had such a flash been seen by the assembled host. It was visible to all about, even to the multitude gathered at the foot of the hill. The people recognized it as the consuming fire of God.
