Elijah The Tishbite
By F.W. Krummacher
Translated From The German
Published by The Religious Tract Society: London 1836 1st Edition

"Elijah The Tishbite (1836) is Friedrich Wilhelm Krummacher's richly devotional retelling of the life and ministry of the Old Testament prophet Elijah, presented through a series of vivid narrative meditations. Rather than approaching Scripture as dry commentary, Krummacher dramatizes each episode—from Elijah's sudden appearance before Ahab, to the drought at Cherith, the miracles at Zarephath, the confrontation with the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel, and his deep despondency under the juniper tree—bringing emotional depth and moral urgency to the prophet's story. The text moves chapter by chapter through Elijah's spiritual trials and victories, blending biblical detail with imaginative reconstruction to illuminate themes of divine providence, faithfulness in times of corruption, and the renewal of spiritual courage.

The author's warm evangelical style, rooted in early 19th-century continental Protestantism, made this one of the most influential religious works of its era, and the 1836 first English edition by the Religious Tract Society remains a significant example of Victorian devotional literature. Krummacher treats Elijah not only as a historical figure but as a model for believers confronting moral decay, spiritual fatigue, or social upheaval, weaving practical lessons through dramatic prose and pastoral reflection. This edition will appeal to collectors of early Religious Tract Society publications, admirers of 19th-century devotional writing, and those with an interest in influential biblical biographies and the history of Protestant spirituality."
