Idolator. Sorceress. Harlot. As far as wicked women go, Jezebel set the standard for which all women would be judged for thousands of years following her death. Her story is immortalized in the Bible, serving as a cautionary tale for those who would turn their back on God. In this episode, we examine the historical figure behind the tale. Jezebel was a Phoenician princess, married to King Ahab of Israel and (probably) his Queen Consort. When she came to Israel, she brought her Gods and her political aptitude with her. Naturally, the men who wrote her story weren’t happy about it.
Also in this episode we discuss the concerning status of rabid dogs running around Ancient Israel and learn the inspiration behind our new favorite Commandment: thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s grapes.
