1 KINGS 19:11 — KING JAMES VERSION 2
“And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the Lord. And, behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the Lord was not in the earthquake:”
And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake — God commands Elijah to stand on the mountain. A great wind tears at mountains and shatters rocks, but God is not in the wind. Then an earthquake comes, but God is not there either. The phrase shows the elimination of dramatic, spectacular manifestations.
