📚 Contexto Histórico
During the reign of King Ahab in Israel, the prophet Elijah was confronting the widespread idolatry of Baal, which had been promoted by Ahab's wife Jezebel, leading to a spiritual crisis in the nation. Elijah challenged the prophets of Baal to a dramatic contest on Mount Carmel to demonstrate that the God of Israel was the one true God. In this verse, Elijah is meticulously preparing his sacrifice by arranging the wood, cutting the bullock, and even dousing it with water to make the upcoming miracle of fire from heaven even more undeniable.
