Old Testament/Stories of Solomon and the kings who followed him. I King 16:23-32

      In the thirty-first year of Asa king of Judah, Omri became king of Israel, and he reigned twelve years, six of them in Tirzah. He bought the hill of Samaria from Shemer for two talents of silver and built a city on the hill, calling it Samaria, after Shemer, the name of the former owner of the hill. But Omri did evil in the eyes of the LORD and sinned more than all those before him. . . . . .Omri rested with his fathers and was buried in Samaria. And Ahab his son succeeded him as king. In the thirty-eighth year of Asa king of Judah, Ahab son of Omri became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria over Israel twenty-two years. Ahab son of Omri did more evil in the eyes of the LORD than any of those before him. He not only considered it trivial to commit the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, but he also married ___________ daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and began to serve Baal and worship him.

 And the kings of Israel got progressively worse…….Who did Ahab marry? Her name is used to this day to describe a certain type of woman…..
