Elisha's people spoke to Elisha in 2 Kings 2:
Acts 8:
I think so. The book of Acts contained quite a number of miracles. This was one of them.
They thought God might have teleported Elijah as a possibility.16a “Look,” they said, “we your servants have fifty able men. Let them go and look for your master. Perhaps the Spirit of the LORD has picked him up and set him down on some mountain or in some valley.”
Acts 8:
G726 did not always mean miraculous transportation (Ac 23:10), but here, the context suggests it was. The Spirit of the Lord suddenly and actively took Philip away. He disappeared from the eunuch's view. Then he re-appeared in another place:36 As they [Philip and the eunuch] traveled along the road, they came to some water and the eunuch said, “Look, here is water. What can stand in the way of my being baptized?” 38 And he gave orders to stop the chariot. Then both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water and Philip baptized him. 39 When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord suddenly took Philip away, and the eunuch did not see him again, but went on his way rejoicing.
Did Philip get teleported by God after he baptized the eunuch from Ethiopia?40 Philip, however, appeared at Azotus and traveled about, preaching the gospel in all the towns until he reached Caesarea.
I think so. The book of Acts contained quite a number of miracles. This was one of them.
