Ahab denied the vineyard of Naboth

'''Back to [[Bible Topic from Genesis to Revelation]]''' '''Back to [['1Kings]]''' ---- 1Ki 21:1: And it came to pass after these things, that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard, which was in Jezreel, hard by the palace of Ahab king of Samaria. 1Ki 21:2: And Ahab spake unto Naboth, saying, Give me thy vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, because it is near unto my house: and I will give thee for it a better vineyard than it; or, if it seem good to thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money. 1Ki 21:3: And Naboth said to Ahab, The LORD forbid it me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers unto thee. 1Ki 21:4: And Ahab came into his house heavy and displeased because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him: for he had said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And he laid him down upon his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no bread. [[Category:Bible Topic]]
