Show Notes

“Jezebel” is a name synonymous with evil; she is the epitome of the wicked woman. She was the daughter of Ethbaal, a priest of the cruel, sensuous, false god Baal. While still a priest, Ethbaal murdered his own brother to take over the throne. Jezebel followed in her father’s footsteps and was herself a power-hungry murderess who stopped at nothing to get what she wanted.

 

In today’s episode we tell her story – at times in her own words. We describe how she influenced political and religious life and how she came into conflict with the people of God. While Jezebel's story itself does not contain direct foreshadowing of Jesus, some parallels can be drawn between certain aspects of their narratives. And this we do.
