The Ministry of Elijah
Ahab took to wife jezebel, the daughter of ethbal, king of the zidonians. As we'll see in subsequent chapters, she seems to be the puppet master pulling ahab's strings. He reared up an altar for baal in the house of baal, which he had built in samaria. And ahab did more to provoke the lord god of israel to anger than all the kings of israel that were before him. With that kind of bold opposition, no wonder god will call the boldest of prophets. It would take some one on his level to back against it.
