Queen Jezebel, Ahab's wife, stands
out prominently as one of the most
conscienceless. Noting that King
Ahab appeared despondent she asked
the cause. on learning it, she prom
ised the king that she would give him
Naboth's vineyard. and advised that
he should cheer up. Immediately she
wrote letters in King Ahab's name
using his royal seal She instructed
some of the officials that on an ap-
pointed fast day, when the people
would be in mourning before the
Lord for their sins, Naboth should be
given a seat Of great honor. Two men
we're to be bribed to rise suddenly in
the midst of the meeting and de-
nounce Naboth as a slanderer Of God
and of the king. The rulers there
upon we're to hear the evidence and
to put the penalty promptly into
execution. The Jewish Law provided
that any blasphemy against Gods
name should be punished by stoning.
The hired witnesses promptly de-
nounced Naboth and corroborated
each others testimony Forthwith a
company arose. and stoned the man
to death outside the city.
The hypocrisy Of the proceedings
astounds one The proclaiming of
the fast was seemingly in honor Of
God. The queens perfdy matches
anything on the pages Of history. The
servility of the governors to her be-
hests evidences that a low state of
morals prevailed.
King Ahab seems TO have been the
passive beneficiary of all this wicked
ness. He was, nevertheless, the ac-
countable person. His course proves
that he was not truly great Riches
and station cannot make greatness;
only character can do so. The king
was very willing to profit by his
wife's shameful course. Upon hear
ing through her that Naboth was
dead, he went over to look at
Naboth's vineyard and to consider
how it might be adapted to his pur-
poses as a part Of the palace garden.
Just as he was entering the vine
yard, he was met by Elijah. who had
been sent by the Lord with a message
Of reproof The king saluted the
Prophet, saying. Hast thou found
me, o mine enemy2" Elijah an
swered. Il have found thee; because
thou hast sold thyself to work evil
in the sight Of the Lord" Then he
informed the king that the Divine
Judgment was that in the same place
where the dogs had licked the blood
Of Naboth, dogs should also lick the
kings blood, and that Queen Jezebel
would have a similar fate.

Numbers 1929.
King Ahab had concluded great
war VIGOROUSLY defeating the
syrians, who had attempted to invade
Israel. The kings fame had gone
abroad. He was feeling his own
greatness perhaps. Indeed, Ahab is
rated as one of the great kings Of
Israel. Although not truly great, he
had certain progressive elements OF
character While King Solomon had
the distinction OF being the first king
to have an ivory throne, for King
Ahab has been claimed the distinc-
tion of having an ivory palace. His
gorgeous palace needed a large,
handsome garden His neghbor
Naboth had vineyard adjoining,
which would make the surroundings
of the palace ideal.
Messengers were sent to Naboth to
negotiate the purchase and a goodly
sum of money was offered for the
vineyard Naboth within his rights,
refused to SELL AS the sequel shows.
however. he would have been wiser
not to have stood for his full rights
The Jewish Law forbade. indeed, the
selling of family inheritances; but
Naboth could have given a lease for
a time, to the kings pleasement and
to his own profit.
The Bible suggests to Christians
the wisdom of being accommodating
in every manner not in violation of
conscience. While they have as great
rights as others Cor greater, perhaps,
on account OF being Gods children),
nevertheless II is part Of their cove
nant with the Lord that they will not
live for themselves merely but chief
ly for the service of the Lord and
their fellows. They are forewarned
also not to expect full iustice--al-
though always TO seek to give Justice
in harmony with the Golden Rule, full
measure pressed down. They are to
realize that in taking this course they
will have more and more the Lords
blessing, and that the experiences of
character under such conditions will
be helpful to them as respects the
coming Kingdom.
