the wilderness

This was a remote location with very few people. This may also be translated as, “desert” or, “the bush.”

During this time

The connecting words "During this time" introduce a simultaneous clause. At the same time as Elijah was hiding in the wilderness, Ahab and his army were looking for him but could not find him. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/grammar-connect-time-simultaneous)
