Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on 1 Kings 16:25-33

25But Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD and acted more wickedly than all who were before him.
26For he walked in all the ways of Jeroboam son of Nebat and in his sins, which he caused Israel to commit, provoking the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their worthless idols.
27As for the rest of the acts of Omri, along with his accomplishments and the might he exercised, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
28And Omri rested with his fathers and was buried in Samaria, and his son Ahab reigned in his place.
29In the thirty-eighth year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Ahab son of Omri became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria twenty-two years.
30However, Ahab son of Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD, more than all who were before him.
31And as if it were not enough for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, he even married Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and he then proceeded to serve and worship Baal.
32First, Ahab set up an altar for Baal in the temple of Baal that he had built in Samaria.
33Then he set up an Asherah pole. Thus Ahab did more to provoke the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger than all the kings of Israel before him.
