The Days of Elijah

If you happen to enjoy contemporary praise music, you more than likely have heard These Are The Days of Elijah . (It happens to be one of my favorites. It is very singable and I can really get into it.) But how many of the performers and the singers know what that was all about? What exactly are The Days of Elijah and why are we singing about them? Elijah, for those who don't know, was the archetype of all prophets. He wasn't the first, he wasn't the only, but he was major. The song begins, These are the days of Elijah, declaring the word of the Lord and these are the days of your servant Moses, righteousness being restored, and though these are days of great trial of famine and darkness and sword. Still, we are the voice in the desert, crying, prepare ye the way of the Lord. Now what does all this mean? Why Elijah? Why Moses? It is clear to me that the person who composed this song was driving at something important, but what exactly? Well, the place to start is naturally, the days of Elijah . He may be not only the archetype of all prophets, but also the most blunt.
