1 Kings 16:30-33

16:30 Ahab son of Omri did more evil in the sight of ¹  the Lord than all who were before him. 16:31 As if following in the sinful footsteps of Jeroboam son of Nebat were not bad enough, he married Jezebel the daughter of King Ethbaal of the Sidonians. Then he worshiped and bowed to Baal. ²  16:32 He set up an altar for Baal in the temple of Baal he had built in Samaria. 16:33 Ahab also made an Asherah pole; he ³  did more to anger the Lord God of Israel than all the kings of Israel who were before him.
