First Kings 17:10

So Elijah set out for Zarephath. [A distance of 160 km from Kerith, where he had been hiding from Jezebel until now. Zarephath means "to melt, to test, to try," and becomes a place where Elijah is tested. The city was located between Tyre and Sidon on the Mediterranean coast in the area ruled by Jezebel's father Ethbaal, see 1 Kings 16:31. Here, in the heart of Baal worship, God promises to provide for Elijah through a poor widow!] When he came to the city gate, he saw a widow gathering sticks for firewood. He called out to her, "Please bring me a cup of water to drink."
