Zone1 Can someone explain the similarities/differences between Elijah and Jesus?

[MarathonMike]

From my layman's perspective Jesus and Elijah seem to be parallel God like figures from Christianity and Judaism. There also seems to be a lot of conflicting opinion on these two figures.

Jesus is the son of God while Elijah was a prophet.

Elijah is like Ben Hur-----both did the chariot thing

I'll only state my opinion politely on this thread and then leave it alone for others to decide.

They're similar because the religious spin has to make them both imaginary figures.

Donald----even you could have done better than OOZING cynicism. Scriptural writings, in general,
are fascinating and often sublime

Jesus may have had a chariot. You just don't know for sure.

Jesus said that? I must have missed it----to whom was he talking? His cousin, John the mikveh
man?

Where did he park it all the time, then?
