TWO MEALS A DAY.

By James White

The case of Elijah’s being fed by the brook Cherith, furnishes good proof for two meals a day.
1 Kings xvii, 6. “And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.”
We are not told what kind of flesh was brought to the prophet of God, but doubtless that which was more healthful than any that can be found at this day. And whatever the ravens may be that waited upon him, it is evident that this is among the miracles of the Old Testament. Hence to take food twice a day seems to be sanctioned by the highest authority in the universe, namely, a miracle by the great God.
