Ahav’s reign over Yisrael

1 Ki 16:29–34

16:29 Ahav’s reign over Yisrael

Northern kingdom

29 Omri’s son Ahav became king of Yisrael (Israel) in the thirty-eighth year of King Ahav’s reign over Yehudah (Judah), and he reigned Yisrael from Shomron (Samaria) for twenty-two years. 30 Ahav did what Yahweh had said was evil—in fact he did more evil things than all those kings who preceded him. 31 As if following Yarov’am’s (Jeroboam’s) behaviour wasn’t bad enough, he married Izevel (Jezebel), the daughter of the Tsidoni King Etba’al, then went and served Ba’al and bowed down to him. 32 ⇔He built a temple for Ba’al in Shomron and placed an altar in it. 33 Ahav also made an Asherah pole and went on to provoke Yisrael’s god Yahweh to get angry, more than any of the previous kings of Yisrael had done. 34 During his reign, Hiel from Beyt -El (Bethel) rebuilt Yeriho (Jericho) city. As they laid the foundations, his eldest son Aviram died, and when they hung the city gates, his youngest son Seguv died, just as Yahweh had told (Nun’s son) Yehoshua (Joshua).[ref]

Josh 6:26:

26 At that time, Yehoshua made the people take an oath, saying,

“May Yahweh curse anyone who rebuilds this city, Yeriho.

When that person lays its foundation, may his oldest son die.

And when he finishes building the city wall and sets up its gates, may his youngest son die.”[ref]
