This icon of Prophet Elijah simultaneously shows several events from the prophet's life: Elijah is shown receiving food from an angel, offering a sacrifice, being fed by a raven, parting the waters of the Jordan, and ascending to heaven in a fiery chariot. Russian peasants associated the Prophet Elijah with the granting of rain and protection from fire.
