Chapter 2: The spectacular ascent of Eliyahu Hanavi and the rise of Elisha
- The following occurred when Hashem ascended Eliyahu up to heaven in a whirlwind:
- The first attempt to part from Elisha in Beit Eil: Eliyahu and Elisha had returned from Gilgal. Eliyahu told Elisha that he must part from him, as Hashem had sent for him to go to Beth El. However, Elisha refused to leave him, and replied to Eliyahu by taking an oath in the name of Hashem and on the life of Eliyahu, that he will not leave him. So, they both went down to Beth El.
- Prophet students warn Elisha of Eliyahu’s imminent demise: The students of the prophets who were in Beth El came out to Elisha and warned him that Hashem had planned to take Eliyahu, his master, from him on this day. Elisha replied that he is well aware of this plan and that they should be quiet.
- The second attempt in Yericho: Eliyahu again told Elisha [while they were in Beth El] that he must part from him, as Hashem had sent for him to go to Yericho. However, Elisha refused to leave him, and replied to Eliyahu by taking an oath in the name of Hashem and on the life of Eliyahu, that he will not leave him. So, they both went down to Yericho.
- Prophet students warn Elisha of Eliyahu’s imminent demise: The students of the prophets who were in Yericho came out to Elisha and warned him that Hashem had planned to take Eliyahu, his master, from him on this day. Elisha replied that he is well aware of this plan and that they should be quiet.
- The third attempt in the Jordon: Eliyahu again told Elisha [while they were in Yericho] that he must part from him, as Hashem had sent for him to go to the Jordon. However, Elisha refused to leave him, and replied to Eliyahu by taking an oath in the name of Hashem and on the life of Eliyahu, that he will not leave him. So, they both went down to the Jordon.
