King Ahab's reign (jan 1, 875 BC – jan 1, 853 BC)

Description:

Ahab was the son of Omri. He reigned for 22 years.
He did more evil then all the kings before him, even Omri. He married Jezebel, the daughter of the king of the Sidonians.
"And Ahab the son of Omri did evil in the sight of the Lord, more than all who were before him. And as if it had been a light thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, he took for his wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and went and served Baal and worshiped him... And Ahab made an Asherah. Ahab did more to provoke the Lord, the God of Israel, to anger than all the kings of Israel who were before him." (1 Kings 16:30, 31, 33)
a. During his reign, Hiel of Bethel built Jericho.
b. Ahab was shot by a random archer in battle and he went back to Samaria and died. Then his chariot was washed out and the dogs licked up his blood, just like they licked up Naboth's blood.
