- I
- Naboth
- Elijah
Correct Answer

A. I

Explanation

Jezebel is speaking to her husband, Ahab, in this passage. She is mocking him and questioning his ability to govern Israel. She tells him to eat bread and be cheerful because she will take care of obtaining the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite for him. The missing word in the passage is "I," indicating that Jezebel will be the one to secure the vineyard for Ahab.

⁸ So she wrote letters in Ahab's name and sealed them with his seal, and she sent the letters to the elders and the leaders who lived with Naboth in his city. ⁹And she wrote in the letters, “Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth at the head of the people. ¹⁰And set two worthless men opposite him, and let them bring a charge against him, saying, ‘You have ___________.’ Then take him out and stone him to death.” -1 Kings 21:8-10
- Cursed God and the king
- Gone back on your promise to give Ahab your vineyard
- Been seen working on the Sabbath
Correct Answer

A. Cursed God and the king

Explanation

The correct answer is "cursed God and the king" because Queen Jezebel is plotting to have Naboth falsely accused and executed. By writing letters in Ahab's name and using his seal, she is manipulating the elders and leaders to proclaim a fast and set Naboth at the head of the people. Then, she instructs them to bring false charges against Naboth, accusing him of cursing God and the king, which would be a serious offense. This manipulation ultimately leads to Naboth's death.

1 Kings 21:15-16 ¹⁵As soon as Jezebel heard that Naboth had been stoned and was dead, Jezebel said to Ahab, “Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give you for money, for Naboth is not alive, but dead.” ¹⁶And as soon as Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, Ahab arose ___________.
- And tore his clothes, put ashes on his head, and mourned for Nahab for 40 days
- To go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession of it
- And killed Jezebel
Correct Answer

A. To go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession of it

Explanation

After hearing of Naboth's death, Ahab's immediate response was to go down to the vineyard of Naboth and take possession of it. This suggests that Ahab saw an opportunity to acquire the vineyard now that its owner was no longer alive.

1 Kings 22:19-23 ¹⁹And Micaiah said, “Therefore hear the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing beside him on his right hand and on his left; ²⁰and the Lord said, ‘Who will entice Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead?’ And one said one thing, and another said another. ²¹Then a spirit came forward and stood before the Lord, saying, ‘I will entice him.’ ²²And the Lord said to him, ‘By what means?’ And he said, ‘I will go out, and will be a _____ spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.’ And he said, ‘You are to entice him, and you shall succeed; go out and do so.’ ²³Now therefore behold, the Lord has put a ____ spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; the Lord has declared disaster for you.”
- Harmful
- Jealous
- Lying
Correct Answer

A. Lying

Explanation

In this passage, Micaiah is recounting a vision where he saw the Lord sitting on his throne, surrounded by the host of heaven. The Lord asks who will entice Ahab to go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead, and a spirit comes forward and offers to do so. The spirit suggests that he will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all of Ahab's prophets. The Lord approves of this plan and allows the spirit to go ahead. Therefore, the correct answer is "lying" because the spirit intends to deceive and mislead Ahab through the false prophecies of his prophets.
