To solve this problem, he could have combined the proposals that share a common issue. For example, Forman could have combined the proposal that claims the prophecy was modified with the proposal that said the prophecy was unfulfilled. The resulting proposal would claim that Elijah’s prophecy was not fulfilled because it was modified. Another issue was that Forman did not present substantial evidence. For example, in his sixth proposal, Forman claims that according to Ian Provan, 1 Kings 21:19 was misunderstood due to an error in the grammar interpretation. According to Forman, Provan’s evidence shows that the clause within 1 Kings 21:19 should have led with ‘instead of’ and not ‘in the place where’. However, since either expression would make the verse clear and logical, claiming that it is a grammatical error that caused the verse to be misunderstood seems improbable. Being that the text has been translated several times, Forman did not produce enough evidence to prove his argument. He would need to compile a vast number of translators to support this claim. Also it would
