And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made.
Entonces tomaron el toro que les fue dado y lo prepararon para el sacrificio. Luego clamaron a Baal desde la mañana hasta el mediodía, diciendo: '¡Oh Baal, respóndenos!' Pero no hubo voz ni nadie que respondiera. Y danzaron alrededor del altar que habían hecho.
Los profetas de Baal clamaron a su dios por horas sin recibir respuesta alguna.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the time of King Ahab of Israel, the nation was deeply divided by religious influences, as Ahab's wife Jezebel promoted the worship of Baal, a Canaanite god that rivaled the true God of Israel. Elijah, a faithful prophet, arranged a dramatic contest on Mount Carmel to demonstrate God's power, challenging the prophets of Baal to call down fire on their sacrifice. In this verse, the prophets are fervently performing rituals, but Baal remains silent, highlighting the emptiness of idol worship.
