The contest between Elijah and the Baal Prophets took place on/at_______________

The contest between Elijah and the Baal Prophets took place on Mount Carmel. Mount Carmel is a mountain range located in northern Israel, near the city of Haifa. It is where Elijah the prophet challenged the prophets of the false god Baal to a contest. The contest was to see which god would answer the prayer of their respective prophets and send down fire from heaven to consume a sacrifice. Elijah called on the God of Israel, while the prophets of Baal called on their god. Despite the prophets of Baal's efforts to get their god's attention, no fire came. But when Elijah called on the Lord, fire came down from heaven and consumed the sacrifice, proving that the God of Israel was the true God. This event is recorded in the Bible in 1 Kings chapter 18.
