Eliyahu Died

"הַשָּׁמָיִם" - Where did Eliyahu go to? These commentators disagree what happened:
  •  - R. Saadia Gaon
  •  - Radak and Hoil Moshe
Where is Eliyahu now?
"סְעָרָה"
Malakhi 3:23 – Radak holds that there is going to be תחיית המתים for Eliyahu so he can come.  On the other hand, Hoil Moshe says that Eliyahu himself is not going to come.  Malakhi is just saying that there will be a prophets again in Yisrael, and the prophet will be similar to Eliyahu1.
"מִכְתָּב מֵאֵלִיָּהוּ" – Radak explains that after Eliyahu died he came to one of the prophets ברוח הנבואה and told him to write the letter in name of Eliyahu.  It is possible that R. Saadia Gaon holds that Eliyahu was still alive during Yehoram's kingship and so he wrote the letter himself.
