Rainer Albertz published a volume in 2006 titled Elia: Ein feuriger Kämpfer fur Gott. The central issue, as he poses it is, why, when Elijah only occupies a mere 6 chapters in the Hebrew Bible, has he become so important in later tradition so as to stand for Prophecy as Moses stands for Law?
It’s a thorough investigation taking readers through the biblical texts up to modern art and music. It’s a true ‘Reception-History’ of Elijah.
