The Prophet Elias at Mount Carmel (O.D.M. painting)

Under the figure of a mysterious cloud, the great and holy prophet Elias saw the Immaculate Virgin, the future mother of the Messiah. Nine centuries before her birth, he venerated Her, and in Her honor instituted his ancient and holy Order, perpetuated by the “Sons of the Prophets” who followed him as their guide.  (Tradition of Carmel)
