Ahav’s death

22:29 Ahav’s death

Northern kingdom

(2 Chr. 18:28-34)

29So so Yisrael’s King Ahav and Yehudah’s King Yehoshafat left to go and attack Ramot-Gilead, 30and Ahav told Yehoshafat, “I’ll go into the battle incognito, but you can wear your royal robes.” So Yisrael’s king changed into ordinary clothes before heading into the battle.

31Meanwhile, Aram’s king had ordered his thirty-two chariot commanders, “Don’t fight with the rank and file—only attack Yisrael’s king.” 32As soon as the chariot commanders saw Yehudah’s King Yehoshafat, they thought to themselves, “Surely that’s Yisrael’s king.” So then they came over to attack him, but Yehoshafat yelled out, 33and as soon as they realised that he wasn’t the king of Yisrael, they stopped chasing him. 34But one man casually shot an arrow with his and it struck Yisrael’s king between the plates of his body armour, and he called to his chariot driver, “Turn around and get me out of the battle because I’ve been wounded.”

35The battle carried on all that day and King Ahav was propped up in his chariot opposite Aram, however he died that evening and the blood from his wound pooled into the bottom of his the chariot. 36Then the call went through the battle lines just as the sun was doing down, “Every man should abandon the battlefield and return to his home

37So King Ahav died and was taken back to Shomron where he was buried. 38They washed out the chariot beside the pool in Shomron (where the prostitutes bathed themselves), and dogs licked up the blood, just as Yahweh had said would happen.

39Everything else about Ahav and everything that he did, including the ivory palace and all the cities that he had built, is written in the book of the events of the kings of Yisrael. 40Now that Ahav was dead, his son Ahazyah replaced him as king.
