Zarephath is a coastal city belonging to Sidon. Elijah stayed there during a severe famine.
1 Kings 17:7Yahweh’s word came to him, saying,1 Kings 17:8“Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and stay there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to sustain you.”1 Kings 17:9So he arose and went to Zarephath; and when he came to the gate of the city, behold, a widow was there gathering sticks. He called to her, and said, “Please get me a little water in a jar, that I may drink.”
1 Kings 17:10As she was going to get it, he called to her, and said, “Please bring me a morsel of bread in your hand.”1 Kings 17:11She said, “As Yahweh your God lives, I don’t have a cake, but a handful of meal in a jar, and a little oil in a jar. Behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and bake it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.”1 Kings 17:12Elijah said to her, “Don’t be afraid. Go and do as you have said; but make me a little cake from it first, and bring it out to me, and afterward make some for you and for your son.1 Kings 17:13For Yahweh, the God of Israel says, ‘The jar of meal will not run out, and the jar of oil will not fail, until the day that Yahweh sends rain on the earth.’ ”1 Kings 17:14She went and did according to the saying of Elijah; and she, and he, and her house, ate many days.1 Kings 17:15The jar of meal didn’t run out, and the jar of oil didn’t fail, according to Yahweh’s word, which he spoke by Elijah.1 Kings 17:16After these things, the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, became sick; and his sickness was so severe that there was no breath left in him.
1 Kings 17:17She said to Elijah, “What have I to do with you, you man of God? You have come to me to bring my sin to memory, and to kill my son!”1 Kings 17:18He said to her, “Give me your son.” He took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into the room where he stayed, and laid him on his own bed.1 Kings 17:19He cried to Yahweh, and said, “Yahweh my God, have you also brought evil on the widow with whom I am staying, by killing her son?”1 Kings 17:20He stretched himself on the child three times, and cried to Yahweh, and said, “Yahweh my God, please let this child’s soul come into him again.”1 Kings 17:21Yahweh listened to the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.1 Kings 17:22Elijah took the child, and brought him down out of the room into the house, and delivered him to his mother; and Elijah said, “Behold, your son lives.”1 Kings 17:23The woman said to Elijah, “Now I know that you are a man of God, and that Yahweh’s word in your mouth is truth.”1 Kings 17:24The woman said to Elijah, “Now I know that you are a man of God, and that Yahweh’s word in your mouth is truth.”
