"Ahab did more to provoke the Lord God OF
Israel TO anger than all the Kings of Israel that
were before him" (16:33.) His ease called
for special severity of punishment. From
Jcroboam on there had been a descent in sin
until the Kingdom Of Israel had reached the

But always lead you through
To question by what art
