While most people will view his death in personal or political terms, our interest is more in the prophetic realm insofar as he is a sign of the times. This appears to be a sign, not of the coming of Elijah, but of the end of men’s expectations of Elijah’s coming.
We can look at this in more than one way. First, we might view this as a transition from Elijah to Elisha. Second, we might view this as the end of men’s hopes that Elijah will come.
