1 Kings 19
1 Elijah, threatened by Jezebel, flees to Beer-sheba.4 In the wilderness, being weary of his life, he is comforted by an angel.9 At Horeb God appears unto him, sending him to anoint Hazael, Jehu, and Elisha.19 Elisha, taking leave of his friends, follows Elijah.

Cicero mentions a statue of Hercules, the chin and lips of which were considerably worn by the kissing of his worshippers.
