and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David

Jesus said to him, "Don't forbid him, for he who is not against us is for us."

When his disciples, James and John, saw this, they said, "Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from the sky, and destroy them, just as Elijah did?"
