==Linking prophecy to prophecy==
It Because Elisha was greater than Elijah, it was also part of the prophecy that the second one would have the prominent place, fulfilled with Jesus taking being greater than John. The prophecy of Elijah is linked to the prominent place. prophecy of Esau who was the first born child to Isaac, but Jacob his brother got the inheritance. Esau was also a hairy man.
:[[Ge 27:11]] And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my brother [is] a hairy man, and I [am] a smooth man:
We are unaccustomed to this type of context overlap, but it is an essential part of Hebrew interpretation. The assumption is that God is the author, and he teaches us through repetition with variation. Comparing and contrasting verses that have similar references takes on a greater importance as a Christian hermeneutic since Jesus taught that all the scriptures spoke of him. The hairy man in one place is a type of Christ using the same reference as a hairy man in another place. Elijah and Esau together tell us about the 'hairiness' of Christ.
In one layer of interpretation long hair is a shame on man and represents Jesus bearing our shame on the cross.
:[[1Co 11:14]] Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
The other meaning is closely related. The camel represents the judge who reveals your shame. The hairiness links Esau and Elijah to the law of the Nazarite, the guy who doesn't cut his hair, and exposes that the Nazarite was a judge in Israel.
You may not be familiar with these references. Don't worry about it now. But just be aware that the details that Mark gives us as part of the fulfillment text, fulfills hidden prophecies. These hidden prophecies make up the mystery of Christ.
:[[Eph 3:4]] Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the '''mystery of Christ''')
:[[Col 4:3]] Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the '''mystery of Christ''', for which I am also in bonds:
