1 Kings 21 - 22

1 Kings
1 KingsSteve Gregg

Steve Gregg provides a comprehensive analysis of 1 Kings 21-22, which narrates the reign of King Ahab. The story revolves around the dispute over Naboth's vineyard, which ultimately leads to Naboth's unjust execution. The chapter also sheds light on the ways in which Ahab and his wife Jezebel engage in sinful practices that provoke God's wrath. Despite the presence of a few good kings, the overall picture of Israel's monarchy during this period is one of corruption and disobedience to God's commands.
