ellauri171.html on line 1005: The next time we hear of Jezebel is during the ploy to obtain Naboth’s vineyard for her husband, who is unable to secure the transaction. She sends letters, with the stamp of the king, to the elders in Naboth’s town, commanding them to lie against Naboth, and then stone him. The elders do so, and after Naboth’s death, the vineyard is claimed for Ahab. Few bible commentators acknowledge the bizarre betrayal of Naboth by his neighbors. If, as is suggested, Naboth’s neighbors had known him since birth and patronized him, how could they turn so quickly? Some scholars argue that this incident highlights Jezebel’s keen understanding of Israelite men. It is perhaps, also, one of the impetus for her modern connotation as manipulator-supreme.

ellauri459.html on line 67: The poet could say, "Nηπιος ος πατερα κτεινας, παιδας υπολειπει." — Arist., Rhet., lib. i cap. 15. i.e., He is a fool who killeth the father, and yet suffereth his children to survive. And it came to pass, when Jehu's letter to that effect came to them, that they took Ahab the king's sons, and slew them seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them Jezreel. This was suitable to Ahab's sin. He had sent for baskets of grapes out of Naboth's vineyard at Jezreel; and now the heads of his sons are brought thither in baskets. God loveth to revenge. A basket full of tits for tat, that is my middle name.
