1 Kings 18:37

that thouart the Lord God R.V. that thou Lord art God. This is what Elijah desired, that it should be shewn that to apply the name -Elohim" to Baal, and idols like him, was a folly and a delusion. The heathen, and those who went after them, used this name for the objects of their worship, and Elijah in his mockery had employed their phrase (1 Kings 18:27) and said of Baal -He is Elohim." In the present verse, as in 1 Kings 18:39 below, the noun has the article before it, which is shewn by the rendering of the A.V. in 1 Kings 18:39 -he is theGod." But such an insertion is needless. If we assert that Jehovah is God, it is implied that there is none else. The R.V. therefore omits the article twice over in 1 Kings 18:39, reading he is God.
