Ahab covets the vineyard of Naboth, who refuses to sell his ancestral inheritance, and sulks like a child. Jezebel arranges Naboth’s judicial murder on false charges of blasphemy and hands the vineyard to Ahab. Elijah meets the king in the stolen vineyard and pronounces terrible judgment on his house and on Jezebel; at this, Ahab humbles himself, and God defers the disaster to his son’s days.
