Pastor John,
Did Elijah suffer from depression?
Matthew
========
Hi Matthew.
I would not call it depression. No. He was thoroughly frustrated with God’s people, and angry, no doubt. The day after proving to Israel on Mount Carmel that Jehovah is God, the queen (Jezebel) wanted him dead. He escaped her, left Israel, traveled way down south to Mount Sinai, and basically quit. God accepted his resignation, but told him to go first and anoint Elisha to take his place. Then God carried him away in a chariot of fire, and Israel saw him no more.
Hope that helps.
Pastor John
