The Devil's Threat to Ahab

I don't think this is the story he was telling forty days ago, fresh off the encounter on carme. I think when he started walking away from where god called him, he was probably saying some other stuff too. With every step that he took rehearsing the wrong story, it reinforced how big his enemy was and how intense his loneliness fell. That's exactly what jezebel intended with her threat. If i can get you, this is what the devil does too, if he can get you to rehearse the wrong story,. And then you cave. You're not weak, you're weary.
