This trip really gave me more of an appreciation for Elijah. He was an amazing prophet who always stood for the Lord, and mostly did it alone. Here is a statue atop Mt. Carmel in honor of Elijah slaying the wicked preists of Baal when the Lord sent down fire to consume Elijah's sacrifice.
The Jezreel valley is just below Mt. Carmel and has a huge presence in the Old Testament, including being the site of the death of Ahab and Jezebel.
