Verse 23 is found in chapter 17 of 1 Kings. The widow’s son dies, and she interprets the tragedy as a possible consequence of her sin. Elijah cries out to the Lord, and the child returns to life. The divine response confirms to the woman that Elijah is truly a man of God and that the Lord’s word in his mouth is truth. The miracle deepens the theme of life and death under the authority of Israel’s God.
