1 Reyes 16:31 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 16:31

And it came to pass, as if it had been a light thing for him
to walk in the sin of Jeroboam the son of Nebat
To worship the golden calves he set up:

that he took to wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the
Zidonians;
who is called Ithobalus and Itobalus king of the Tyrians, by Heathen historians F8; and, by Theophilus of Antioch F9, Juthobalus, priest of Astarte; for Tyre and Zidon were under one king. This woman was not only of another nation, and an idolater, but a very filthy woman, and is made the emblem of the whore of Rome, ( Revelation 2:20 )

and went and served Baal, and worshipped him
that is, went to Zidon and Tyre, and worshipped his wife's gods, which were either Jupiter Thalassius, the god of the Zidoaians, or Hercules, whom the Tyrians worshipped.

1 Reyes 16:31 In-Context

29 Acab gobierna en Israel
Acab, hijo de Omri, comenz贸 a gobernar Israel en el a帽o treinta y ocho del reinado de Asa, rey de Jud谩; y rein贸 en Samaria veintid贸s a帽os.
30 Sin embargo, Acab, hijo de Omri, hizo lo malo a los ojos del Se帽or
, peor a煤n que todos los reyes anteriores.
31 Y como si fuera poco haber seguido el ejemplo de Jeroboam, se cas贸 con Jezabel, hija del rey Et-baal, de los sidonios, y comenz贸 a inclinarse y a rendir culto a Baal.
32 Primero construy贸 un templo y un altar para Baal en Samaria.
33 Luego levant贸 un poste dedicado a la diosa Asera. Acab hizo m谩s para provocar el enojo del Se帽or
, Dios de Israel, que cualquier otro de los reyes anteriores de Israel.
