The Still Small Voice

1 Kings 19

It is said that the hand of the Lord was upon Elijah to bring him to Jezreel. He knew that Jezebel was there. Her character was well known to him; but he feared not to go where duty called him, and to carry on and complete the great work he had so signally commenced—of bringing back the people to the faith of their fathers—of keeping them firm in the choice they had made—of strengthening the good impressions they had received—and of maintaining the influence he had begun to establish over the mind of the unstable king. These were great objects, and it was not to be expected that such a man as Elijah, whose conquering faith had never yet known doubt or fear, would shrink from any danger in order to realize them. His duty called him to Jezreel, and to Jezreel he went.

All that has gone before, and all that we know of his character, would naturally prepare us to hear of his great doings there—in that very place of Satan’s seat—in purging out the unclean thing. It was a great task; and of all the men that ever lived, Elijah seemed the one best fitted for it, by his extraordinary spiritual gifts, and by the convincing assurances which he had just received, that the Lord was with him, would hear his prayer, would hold his life precious, and would afford him all the aid his work required. But the expected history of great doings and great reforms is a blank. Nothing was done. The great Elijah—that strong-hearted man—failed at the critical moment, fled from his post to save his life when threatened by the wrath of Jezebel, as soon as she heard that her prophets had been slain. He who had experienced the sufficiency of the Lord’s protection from prince, prophets, and people, now shrinks at last, at the crisis of his highest duty, from the face of a woman, whom his Master could, if He had seen fit, have cut off in a moment. He fled; and, lacking their great guide, and the prime leader in this auspicious movement, the people became discouraged, and the impression made upon the king’s mind rapidly cooled down, both relapsing into nearly their former state. Truly in this did Elijah show himself “a man of like passions as we are.” O Lord, what is man? O Lord, who shall stand, when even thy Elijahs fail in their high trust?

Those who vindicate Elijah for fleeing when his life appeared in danger, forget that he was not a private person but a commissioned prophet, set prominently forth before the eyes of men, as the appointed corrector of his times and people. He had an appointed post to occupy, and a determined duty to fulfill, in which his Master would certainly sustain him; and from which not even the fear of certain death should have permitted him to flee. Suppose, indeed, that he had been absolutely certain that the Lord would not interfere and that to stay was death—how could he know but that the Lord’s cause might be better promoted, and His great name more glorified, by his death than by his life. From such a man as Elijah we are entitled to make exactions of duty from which commoner men might be excused. In him, of all men, we are entitled to look for the martyr-spirit for if not in him, in whom of that age was it to be looked for?

Still, in this deplorable lapse of faith, there is, we suspect, some mystery that does not at first sight appear; for so signal a failure of duty in a man so eminent, is seldom without its antecedents—is seldom other than the due effect of something that has gone before. Seeing how often the declinations or lapses of great and good men follow closely upon the moments of their highest exaltation—there is reason to suspect that Elijah had suffered his mind to be too much elevated, “exalted above measure,” by the great deeds he had accomplished, and by the notion in his mind, that he alone of all Israel had maintained his faith untainted. It was therefore necessary that he should be humbled, by being allowed to feel his own weakness, and to know that of himself he was nothing. For this correction it was only necessary that the Lord’s hand should for a moment be withdrawn from him, that for a little while he should be left to himself. The example is most instructive, as showing how timid and forlorn a creature even an Elijah may become, when even for a short time stripped, in correcting mercy, of all but his own strength.

The prophet, haunted by fears hitherto unknown to his stout heart, hastened to get into the neighboring kingdom of Judah. Even there he was uneasy until he had reached Beersheba, the most distant inhabited place of that kingdom, towards the southern desert. Good Jehoshaphat then reigned in Judah, and one would think that the prophet might have deemed himself safe under his protection, even if he had openly declared himself. But with his shaken trust in God, he had lost much of his trust in man; and he seems to have recollected that Jehoshaphat was politically in close alliance with Ahab, and that his eldest son had espoused the likeminded daughter of that Jezebel, whose name had become a terror to him. He began to feel uneasy even in Beersheba. He therefore dismissed his servant, and set forth alone into the wilderness, whose wide but desolate bosom offered, as it seemed to him, the best security against detection and pursuit. Perhaps he had some reason to expect to find in this quarter, at the present time of the year, the friendly Arabs through whom the Lord had provided for his wants by the brook Cherith, and who would have been glad to receive him into their tents. All day he travelled, and found no refuge; and in the evening, worn out with fatigue and consumed with hunger, he cast himself down under the shelter of one of the broom-trees, Note: Genista rœtani, or Spanish broom, is allowed to be the tree (in Hebrew rothem) the name of which is translated juniper in the text. which alone flourish in that wilderness. Here this lately strong-souled man lay hopeless, helpless, and despairing; and he who fled so anxiously from death, prayed for himself that he might die. “It is enough; O Lord God, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.” Strange contradiction! Here the man who was destined not to taste of death—flees from death on the one hand, and seeks it on the other! And who told him it was “enough?” God did not; He knew what was enough for him to do and to suffer. It was not enough. God had more to teach him, and had more work for him to do. If the Lord had taken him at his word, and had also said it was “enough,” Elijah’s history would have wanted its crowning glory.

Hitherto the Lord had not manifested himself to him since he had left his high post. But He had not lost sight of his servant, and the time was come when it seemed to Him fit to evince so much care towards him as might prevent him from being consumed with over-much sorrow. From restless sleep, troubled with dreams and doubts, he was roused by the touch of an angel, and he beheld close by a cruse of water and a cake of bread just baken on the coals. After having partaken of this simple but grateful fare, he sunk into sounder sleep; and, as the morning rose, he was again awakened, and found the same provision made for him. In this food, prepared by angel hands, he found more than mortal nourishment; for the strength it imparted enabled him to travel without weariness, and to remain for no less than forty days without the need or wish for other food.

He was now in a better mind, yet not wholly corrected. Something more was needed to be taught him. His journey now assumed a definite object. He proposed to go among the mountains of Sinai, probably as being uninhabited, and as affording among their recesses many caverns in which he might rest without danger of detection. And although he was still astray from the path of strict duty, we make no question that he expected and hoped to build his heart up in holy thoughts among the scenes which the footsteps of the Lord had hallowed.

So he went to Horeb, and took up his quarters in a cave. Here at last the word of the Lord came to him once more. It came in the form of questioning rebuke. “What doest thou here, Elijah?” As much as to say—“What hast thou of all men, to do here? Thou, whose post in my service is among the haunts of men—to fight my battles against a perverse generation, and to strengthen the hearts of those who still encourage themselves in the Lord their God. What hast thou to do in this selfish, moaning solitude? With whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? What hast thou to do here?”

Elijah’s answer is less candid, or rather more self-deceiving, than we could wish. He upholds his own zeal for the Lord; he believes he is the only true worshipper left; and therefore he seeks to preserve a life which had thus become so important, that forsaken truth might not be left without a living witness. He was then directed to go forth and stand on the mount before the Lord. He obeyed; and as he stood, a great strong wind went by, that brake the rocks and rent the mountains. But the Lord was not in that wind; it was but his harbinger. Then an earthquake made the everlasting hills tremble beneath his feet; but the Lord was not there. Then a fire wrapped in flame the crests of the mountains; but the Lord was not in the fire. All these terrors were but his harbingers—the harbingers of a “still small voice.” When the prophet heard that Voice, he knew it; and since he might not hide within the cavern, he wrapped his face in the folds of his mantle, and stood to receive the word of the Lord. The question was repeated. “What doest thou here, Elijah?” And to this the same reply was given. The answer was, to bid him return to the world, and do the Lord’s work in it; with the assurance that, alone in the faith, as he thought himself, the Lord, who knew and numbered his hidden ones, had found in Israel “seven thousand knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.” Note: Literally to him, suggesting that this act of homage consisted in kissing the hand to him—an ancient act of worship represented in sculptures.

“Back, then, complainer; loath thy life no more,

Nor deem thyself upon a desert shore,

Because the rocks the nearer prospect close.

Yet in fallen Israel are there hearts and eyes

That day by day in prayer like thine arise;

Thou knowest them not, but their Creator knows.

Go, to the world return, nor fear to cast

Thy bread upon the waters; sure at last,

In joy to find it after many days.”—Keble.

And we also! Has it not often been so with us, that after we have been tossed by the rough winds, shaken by the earthquake, and scorched in many fires, the “still small voice” has come to us in the solitude of our chamber, in the night watches upon our beds, accusing us of neglected duty and broken faith—yet speaking comfort, and whispering encouragement and hope.
