1 Kings 17

Eliyyahu flees to **Nachal Kerit** where **YHWH** commands ravens to feed him bread and meat while he drinks from the brook during the drought; when the brook dries up, **YHWH** sends him to **Tzarfat** to a widow (**almanah**) who, obeying his word, miraculously sustains them all with unending flour and oil.[1][2][3] The widow's son dies, but Eliyyahu cries to **YHWH**, stretches over the boy three times, and **YHWH** restores his life, prompting the widow to affirm 'Now I know that you are a man of God'.[1][2][5]
