Did Elijah die or not? It wasn’t exactly recorded that he died in the Bible.
“And so it happened. They were walking along and talking. Suddenly a chariot and horses of fire came between them and Elijah went up in a whirlwind to heaven”—2kings 2:1
The Bible has no record that Elijah died, he was taken up to heaven in a whirlwind.
Elijah did not die, he was taken up on a fire chariot, in a whirlwind. Another person who was taken up to heaven without dying was Enoch. It can be said that Jesus was also taken up to heaven without dying, “the ascension of Christ”.
