He was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen, and he himself was driving the twelfth pair. Elijah went up to him and threw his cloak around him. 20 Elisha then left his oxen and ran after Elijah. “Let me kiss my father and mother goodbye,” he said, “and then I will come with you.” “Go back,” Elijah replied. “What have I done to you?” 21 So Elisha left him and went back. He took his yoke of oxen and slaughtered them. He burned the plowing equipment to cook the meat and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he set out to follow Elijah and became his servant. God has a mantle with your name on it, and a calling bigger than the field you are standing in. So Elijah went and found Elisha son of Shaphat plowing a field. There were twelve teams of oxen in the field, and Elisha was plowing with the twelfth team. Elijah went over to him and threw his cloak across his shoulders and then walked away. – 1 Kings 19:19 NLT God loves to choose the one at the (back of the line). Elijah went up to [Elisha] and threw his cloak around him. – 1 Kings 19:19b NIV Addereth: (cloak; mantle) a large, heavy garment made of animal hair, representing spiritual authority and anointing.

You don’t have to (understand) fully to (obey) immediately. So Elisha returned to his oxen and slaughtered them. He used the wood from the plow to build a fire to roast their flesh. He passed around the meat to the townspeople, and they all ate. Then he went with Elijah as his assistant. – 1 Kings 19:21 NLT You can’t hold the (plow) and the (mantle) at the same time.
