In verit non ci fu mai alcuno che si vendette a fare ci che male agli occhi dellEterno come Achab, perch era sospinto da sua moglie Jezebel.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But there was none like unto Ahab, which did sell himself to work wickedness in the sight of the Lord,.... Not of any of his predecessors, even those whose families had been destroyed, as his would be, 1 Kings 21:21.

1 Kings 21:21- :.

whom Jezebel his wife stirred up; to idolatry, revenge, and murder, and to whose will he was a slave, and is one instance of his being a captive to sin, and giving up himself to the power of it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

whom Jezebel stirred up - The history of Ahab’s reign throughout exhibits him as completely governed by his imperious wife. Instances of her influence are seen in 1 Kings 21:7, 1 Kings 21:15, marginal reference, 1 Kings 18:4; 1 Kings 19:2.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 25. Did sell himself to work wickedness — He hired himself to the devil for this very purpose, that he might work wickedness. This was to be his employment, and at this he laboured.

In the sight of the Lord, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up. — A good wife is from the Lord; a bad wife is from the devil: Jezebel was of this kind; and she has had many successors.
