Sedomah, I can’t believe some people name their girls Isabel

even though in english it sounds like a nice name,

though the name comes from Izebel the Rashanis. see below..

Jezebel in the 1st Book of Kings, Phoenician princess, wife of King Ahab, mother of Ahaziah, Jehoram, & Athaliah.

She encouraged worship of Baal, including the worship of

Asherah or Asheroth & persecuted the prophets of her day.

Jezebel was the bitter foe of Elijah Elijah Elijah’s prophecy of Jezebel’s doom was fulfilled when Jehu triumphed over the house of Ahab. In Revelation, her name is applied to a false prophetess of Thyatira. “A Jezebel in common usage is a wicked woman.”
