The axe head that floated in 2 Kings 6 shows that God's power reaches even the ordinary losses of daily life, and that He is not distant from the things that worry His people.

In 2 Kings 4:8-37, a wealthy woman in Shunem gives Elisha a room, receives a promised son, loses him to sudden death, and presses the prophet until the child lives again. The story shows what faithful hospitality and stubborn faith look like when God seems silent.

Elisabeth Elliot taught that 1 Peter 3:1-6 describes a wife's quiet witness through reverent conduct, not a tool for controlling an unbelieving husband. This study walks through the passage's context, grammar, and limits.

Elimelech was the Bethlehemite husband of Naomi who left Judah for Moab during a famine and died there. His name, his decision, and his unclaimed inheritance frame the whole book of Ruth.

The widow of Zarephath fed Elijah from a handful of flour and a little oil, and God kept the jar from running out. When her son died, Elijah stretched himself over the boy and cried to Yahweh, who restored his life. The passage shows God's care for a foreigner and his power over death.

Malachi promises Elijah before the great and terrible day of Yahweh. Jesus identifies John the Baptist as that Elijah, while leaving room for a future coming. This study traces the promise through the Gospels.

Elijah was not carried to heaven in a fiery chariot; the chariot of fire and horses of fire separated him from Elisha, and he went up by a whirlwind. The passage is about Yahweh's power, the end of Elijah's prophetic office, and the beginning of Elisha's ministry.

Elijah on Mount Carmel confronts the prophets of Baal, but the story is framed by Ahab and Jezebel's royal sponsorship of idolatry. The contest settles who answers by fire, yet Jezebel's threat and Naboth's vineyard show the harder battle is still ahead.

1 Kings 19 follows Elijah from collapse in the wilderness to a renewed commission, and introduces Elisha as the successor who will finish what Elijah began. The passage pairs honest human exhaustion with God's quiet, unhurried provision and long-term plan.

Eliakim son of Hilkiah was promoted from palace administrator to royal steward, entrusted with the key of David. Yet Isaiah's prophecy ends with his peg giving way, pointing forward to a firmer holder of the keys.

Isaiah 22:20-25 records God replacing a failed official with Eliakim and giving him the key of the house of David. Revelation 3:7 applies that same key to Jesus, which is why Christians have long read Eliakim as a type of Christ.

Eli was Israel's high priest at Shiloh, the man who raised Samuel but failed to restrain his own sons. His story shows how passivity in spiritual leadership can be as destructive as open rebellion.

When Eldad and Medad prophesied outside the Tent of Meeting, Joshua wanted them stopped. Moses answered with a wish instead of a rebuke, and the moment still tests how we treat gifts we did not authorize.

Elam appears first as a son of Shem in Genesis 10:22, then as a kingdom whose king Chedorlaomer raided Canaan, and later as a nation named in prophecies of judgment. Yet Elamites were present at Pentecost when the Spirit fell.

Egyptology gives real background for Joseph's rise in Genesis 41, but it cannot prove or disprove Scripture. The passage's point is God's wisdom and providence, not a slot in a king list.

The Edict of Milan is often remembered as the moment Christianity became legal, but Acts 18 gives a sharper picture of how the gospel advanced under Roman law. It shows Paul facing a tribunal, and a proconsul who refused to convict him.

The Edenic covenant is God's pre-fall arrangement with Adam in Genesis 2:15-17: a garden to cultivate, a command to keep, and a warning about death. It grounds Paul's teaching that sin and death entered the world through one man.

The Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople is the spiritual leader of the worldwide Orthodox Church. His role rests on an ancient episcopal tradition, while his prayer for Christian unity rests on the high-priestly prayer of Jesus in John 17.

Eckankar presents itself as a path to God through the Light and Sound of God and the guidance of the Mahanta. Colossians 2:8-10 warns against any teaching that is not after Christ, who alone is the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

Ecclesiology is the study of the church, and Matthew 16:13-20 is one of its foundation texts. Jesus promises to build his assembly on the confession of Peter, and gives the keys of the Kingdom. What that does and does not establish matters.
