Bible Question: Who is the prophet that counteracted a deadly poison in a pot of herbs by pouring in meal? Thanks in advance for your help. JAL |
Bible Answer: Hey, jalanlambet, The prophet was Elisha. In my translation, (NIV), it says that it was a pot of stew and Elisha put some flour in and then there was no more poison. Of course, there wasn't anything particularly special about the flour, but God's power was at work. What's interesting though, is immediately following this story is a short account of Elisha mulitplying loaves of bread by God's power. Jesus' miracle of feeding the five thousand in the New Testament was not completely unprecedented. Hope I was a help. God bless Jo |
