Jezebel

No one names their daughter "Jezebel."  I mean no one.  She was terrible.

Jezebel was the wife of Ahab, king of Israel (1 Kings 16:31).  She was a tyrant who corrupted her husband, as well as the nation, by promoting Baal worship.  She quickly became the power behind the throne.  Obedient to her wishes Ahab erected a sanctuary for Baal and supported hundreds of pagan prophets (1 Kings 18:19).  When the prophets of Jehovah opposed Jezebel, she had them "massacred" (1 Kings 18:4,13). After Elijah defeated her prophets on Mount Carmel, she swore revenge.  Jehu disposed of Jezebel by having her thrown from the palace window. In fulfillment of the prediction of the prophet Elijah, Jezebel was trampled by the horses and eaten by the dogs (1 Kings 21:19). Only Jezebel's skull, feet, and the palms of her hands were left to bury when the dogs were finished (2 Kings 9:30-37).

Jezebel got what she deserved.  May we live in such a way that we get mercy and forgiveness.  Live in such a way as to glorify Jehovah.
