ahab


Значение термина ahab в knolik


ahab - Ahab
ahab - King of Israel (875-53 b.c.). He succeeded his father Omri (1 Kings 16-22), and by his marriage with Jezebel, daughter of Ethbaal, king of Tyre, was drawn to the worship of Baal and Astarte. When, to secure Naboth's vineyard for him, Jezebel caused Naboth's death, and Ahab hastened to take possession of the land he coveted, he was met by Elijah with the prophecy of his death and the destruction of his house, a punishment delayed by his repentance. In his reign of 22 years he carried on two successful campaigns against the Syrians under Benhadad II, and was slain in a third campaign at Ramoth-gilead by a "certain man" who "drew a bow at a venture." Ahab is the name also of a false prophet burnt to death by Nebuchadrezzar (Jer. 29).
