In 1 Kings 19:16, God commands Elijah to anoint Elisha; here Elijah obeys by casting his mantle.

In 1 Kings 19:13, Elijah covers his face with his mantle; here he uses the same mantle to call Elisha. Same garment, different purpose.

In 2 Kings 2:8, Elijah uses the same cloak to part the Jordan — the cloak thrown over Elisha here becomes a sign of prophetic power.

In 2 Kings 2:13, Elisha retrieves the fallen cloak — the same one thrown over him here, now inheriting Elijah's prophetic ministry.

In 2 Kings 2:14, Elisha uses the cloak to part the Jordan, mirroring Elijah's miracle — confirming his succession as prophet.

In Matthew 4:18, Jesus calls fishermen from their nets; Elisha is called from plowing. Both leave their occupation to follow.

In Matthew 9:9, Jesus calls Matthew from his tax booth — both narratives depict a sudden call to discipleship from a person's occupation.

In Luke 5:28, Levi leaves everything to follow Jesus — a parallel to Elisha leaving his oxen to follow Elijah.

In Judges 6:11, Gideon is threshing wheat when the angel calls him; Elisha is plowing when Elijah calls him. Both called while working.

In 1 Samuel 11:5, Saul is also plowing with oxen when called — a parallel between the call of Elisha and the call of Saul to leadership.

In Psalm 78:70-72, God takes David from shepherding to lead Israel; Elisha leaves oxen to become a prophet. Both called from pastoral work.

In Amos 7:14, Amos says he was a herdsman, not a prophet; Elisha also was a farmer called to prophetic ministry.
