of Gods Spirit in his heart, as Elijah had. Elijah answered, thou hast askeda hard thing; yet if thou see me when I am taken from thee, thou shalt havewhat thou askest for; but if not, thou shalt not have it. And as they walked on and talked together, behold, there came a chariot of fire, with horses of fire, that took Elijah away from Elisha, and he went up in the chariot to heaven. Elisha saw it, and cried out, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel and the horsemen thereof. He called Elijah father, for so they called the prophets in those days. And he called, him the chariot of Israel and the horsemen thereof, because Elijah would have been better than chariots and horses to help the people and gain the victory for them over their enemies, if they had only been willing to obey him. And after that Elisha saw Elijah no more. And Elisha took up the mantle of Elijah, and with it he struck the waters of the river, and they parted for him, and he went over alone, on dry ground. 154
