Ahab Reigns in Israel
29 In the thirty-eighth year of Asa king of Judah, Ahab the son of Omri became king over Israel; and Ahab the son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty-two years.

31 And it came to pass, as though it had been a trivial thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, athat he took as wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal, king of the bSidonians; cand he went and served Baal and worshiped him.
32 Then he set up an altar for Baal in athe temple of Baal, which he had built in Samaria.
33 aAnd Ahab made a wooden image. Ahab bdid more to provoke the Lord God of Israel to anger than all the kings of Israel who were before him.
34 In his days Hiel of Bethel built Jericho. He laid its foundation1 with Abiram his firstborn, and with his youngest son Segub he set up its gates, aaccording to the word of the Lord, which He had spoken through Joshua the son of Nun.
