Him becomingg a prophetoic successor to himself in the person of Elisha.
Elisha was the major prophet and spiritual leader of the time, having succeeded Elijah and having received a double portion of Elijah's spirit. Elisha was the primary messenger on earth and had power from God to perform great miracles. Even Kings stepped aside for these holy men.
Elijah had great zeal for the Lord and so, in ministering to the idolatrous Northern Kingdom of Israel during the period of the divided kingdom, he inevitably had conflict with those wicked kings who supported idolatry. Ahab, together with his wicked wife Jezebel were the first with whom he came into conflict. Elijah is a symbol of all those who, as almost a lone voice, take a stand against the sin and wickedness of their day.
