Mount Carmel
Where Elijah called fire from heaven and ended a drought
GalileeAbout This Place
A mountain range stretching from the Jezreel Valley to the Mediterranean coast. This is where Elijah staged his dramatic showdown against 450 prophets of Baal — calling down fire from heaven on a drenched altar, then having the false prophets executed. After the contest, Elijah prayed and a drought-ending rain finally came.
