Description
Carmelites are unique in the Roman Catholic Church in the level of devotion that they give to such a figure of the Old or First Testament. Since Elijah is revered by Jews, Christians and Muslims, he is a figure that encourages Carmelites to engage in interfaith encounter and dialogue.
Written by Geoffrey Ashe MBE FRSL (born 29 March 1923), who is a British cultural historian, lecturer, and author of many historical books and novels.
