Old Testament/Stories of Solomon and the kings and prophets who followed him. I Kings 19:12ff

. . . . And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice. And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What are you doing here, Elijah? And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: because the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down your altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away. And the LORD said unto him, Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus: and when you get there, anoint Hazael to be king over Syria: And Jehu the son of Nimshi you shall anoint to be king over Israel: and ____________ the son of Shaphat of Abelmeholah shall thou anoint to be prophet in your place. And it shall come to pass, that those that escape the sword of Hazael will be slain by Jehu: and those that escape from the sword of Jehu shall _________ slay. Yet I reserve ______________ in Israel-- all whose knees have not bowed down to Baal and all whose mouths have not kissed him."

Who was the prophet that was to take the place of Elijah? How many were left that had NOT bowed down to Baal?
