Three Years of Drought Upon Israel

Fulfilled
870 BC — Samaria
Elijah the Tishbite said to Ahab: "As the Lord, the God of Israel, lives, whom I serve, there will be neither dew nor rain in the next few years except at my word." (1 Kings 17:1). The drought lasted three and a half years, devastating the land and proving that the Lord, not Baal, controlled the rain and harvest.
