Between Elijah and Elisha, probably the best known among the preclassical non-writers prophets, there is a prophetic succession, described in 2 Kings 2:1-25; and 2 Kings 1–2 also presents a narrative transition, where two cycles of stories encounter. These two cycles have been, with rare exceptions, worked independently by exegetical research. The present thesis, however, is based on the hypothesis that there is a well-thought-out succession of the two cycles, so that 2 Kings 1,1-18 has a significant function for the unity of 2 Kings 1–2 around prophetic succession, and that, therefore, there are intrinsic relations of continuity/discontinuity between the cycles of these two prophets. But the main hypothesis to be worked on, and which has received no consideration on the part of scholars, is that not only 2 Kings 2.1-25, but 2 Kings 1,1-18 belongs to the Elisha cycle. Methodologically, the conjugation of the Historical-Critical Method with Narrative Analysis is understood as appropriate for such investigation. The thematic articulation allows, through Narrative Analysis, to expand as much as possible the connections already perceived by the Historical-Critical Method; and if the Narrative Analysis shows how 2 Kings 1,1-18 and 2 Kings 2,1-25 articulate each other, the Historical-Critical Method evidences that this articulation proposed by the implicit narrator did not obfuscates the independent character of each narrative The joint use of the two methodologies provides, in addition to the debate about the cycles of Elijah and Elisha, an appreciation of the character of both prophets, which allows a comparison between the figures of Elijah and Elisha while in the exercise of prophetic ministry, and pastorally points to a path of pacifism and disruption with all manifestations of violence and intolerance.
