Repairing the Destroyed Altar
Exegetical Approaches
Old Altar
The altar had been made much earlier, in one of the eras in which it was permitted to erect private altars.
Recent Altar
The altar was built after the Beit HaMIkdash was constructed, but was permitted since the Mikdash was inaccessible to those living in the Northern Kingdom.
New Altar
The altar was erected by Eliyahu himself, earlier in the day, but was destroyed by the Baal prophets.
Sources:Malbim
No Altar
Eliyahu's fixing of the destroyed altar is a metaphor for his repairing the nation's relationship with Hashem.
