The Significance of Prophet Elijah
This Orthodox icon is a handmade lithography of Prophet Elijah (Elias/Ilias), crafted with double varnish for water resistance and lasting durability. One of the greatest Old Testament prophets, Prophet Elijah was born in Tishbe of Gilead from the Levite tribe, 900 years before the Incarnation of Christ.
According to Saint Epiphanios of Cyprus, when Elijah was born, his father had a vision of men swaddling him in fire and feeding him flames, symbolizing his divine mission. His name, meaning “The Lord’s strength”, defined his life of fasting, prayer, and unwavering faith.
As a prophet in Israel during the reign of King Ahab, Elijah fiercely opposed idol worship, denouncing the people's turn to Baal under Queen Jezebel’s influence. When the nation refused to repent, he prophesied a devastating drought, which came to pass through his prayers. This Byzantine icon captures his powerful presence as a fiery zealot of faith, calling Israel back to God.
A timeless piece of Orthodox Christian iconography, created with reverence and traditional techniques.

Hello !
I couldn’t be happier with my purchase of this beautiful Icon of the Prophet Elias ! It is exactly as was depicted and surpassed my expectations. It is top quality. It was well packaged and arrived in excellent condition and time.
Handmade in Greece since 1978.
Every piece leaves our workshop finished by hand — the wood prepared, the image laid, the surface aged and varnished. One at a time, the way Greek icon workshops have worked for generations.
We make them to be lived with: held in prayer, hung in a quiet corner, passed on.
"Come close to God, and God will come close to you." — James 4:8
