1 Kings 18:19
Mount Carmel <03760 02022> [mount Carmel.]
Mount Carmel is situated north of Dora and south of Ptolemais or Acre, from which it is distant, according to Josephus, 120 stadia, or, according to Thevenot, 10 miles; one of its principal points advancing considerably into the Mediterranean, and forming an elevated promontory. It is described as a flattened cone, about 2,000 feet (some say 1,500) in height, very rocky, its sides steep and rugged, and the soil neither deep nor rich. Capt. Mangles says its is now quite barren, though at the north-eastern foot of it there are some pretty olive-grounds.
prophets ... Baal .... prophets <01168 05030> [the prophets of Baal.]
prophets ...... prophets ... Asherah <0842 05030> [prophets of the groves.]
Though {ashairah} certainly denotes in some place a grove, yet it is equally certain, that in others, as here, it must signify an idol; and it is thought by learned men to be the same as Ashtoreth, or Astarte the Syrian Venus.

Sell ............. give .............. sell <05414> [I will not give.]

villains <01121 01100> [sons of Belial.]
cursed <01288> [Thou didst blaspheme.]
Some, with Parkhurst, would render the original, {bairachta elohim wamailech,} "Thou hast blessed the gods and Molech;" a sense, however, which seems extremely forced, and is not acknowledged by any of the ancient versions, though the LXX. and Vulgate render {bairachta} by [eulogese,] {benedixit,} "blessed." It is no unusual thing for a word to have opposite senses.
Jezebel <06213 0348> [did as Jezebel.]

Jezebel <0348> [whom Jezebel.]
urged <05496> [stirred up. or, incited.]
1 Kings 21:2
Give .... vineyard ..................... give ...... vineyard ........... pay <05414 03754> [Give me.]
The request of Ahab, at first view, appears fair and honourable. But, as he most evidentially wished Naboth to alienate it finally, which was expressly forbidden and provided against in the law of God, (Le 25:14-28,) it was high iniquity in Ahab to tempt him to do it, and to covet it showed the depravity of his soul.
vegetable garden <03419 01588> [a garden of herbs.]
better ......... prefer <05869 02896> [seem good to thee. Heb. be good in thine eyes.]
