Talmud zu Könige I 16:31

וַיְהִי֙ הֲנָקֵ֣ל לֶכְתּ֔וֹ בְּחַטֹּ֖אות יָרָבְעָ֣ם בֶּן־נְבָ֑ט וַיִּקַּ֨ח אִשָּׁ֜ה אֶת־אִיזֶ֗בֶל בַּת־אֶתְבַּ֙עַל֙ מֶ֣לֶךְ צִידֹנִ֔ים וַיֵּ֙לֶךְ֙ וַֽיַּעֲבֹ֣ד אֶת־הַבַּ֔עַל וַיִּשְׁתַּ֖חוּ לֽוֹ׃

Und es begab sich, als wäre es für ihn eine leichte Sache gewesen, in den Sünden Jerobeams, des Sohnes Nebats, zu wandeln, und er nahm Isebel, die Tochter Ethbaals, des Königs der Zidonier, zur Frau und ging und diente Baal und betete ihn an.

Jerusalem Talmud Sanhedrin

So what did Aḥab do129To commit a new kind of sin.? It is written1351K. 16:31.: If it would have been too easy to follow the sins of Jeroboam ben Nevat. Are not the light sins of Aḥab the serious sins of Jeroboam? Why was Jeroboam counted first136This shows that the Mishnah underlying the Halakhah was not the Mishnah as quoted in the ms. but followed the order of the Yerushalmi: Jeroboam, Ahab, Manasse.? Because he started the misconduct. What did Aḥab do? He adorned himself every day and stood before his army commander137The word probably represents Greek στρατηλάτης “army commander”. Ḥiel, asking him, for how much am I good today? He answered him, so and so much; then he donated its value138Greek τίμησις “estimation, valuation”. to foreign worship. That is what is written1391K. 21:20. Because you sold yourself to do evil in the Eternal’s eyes. Rebbi Levi continued for six months to explain the following verse to shame1401K. 21:25. There never was anyone like Aḥab who sold himself to do evil in the Eternal’s eyes. He came to him at night141This shows that Ahab has part in the World to come, against the Mishnah. and asked him, how did I sin against you, what did I do before you? You have the first part of the verse, but you do not have the end of the verse: whom his wife Jezebel had misguided. He142R. Levi. continued for six months to explain it as praise, only one should not be like Aḥab … whom his wife Jezebel had misguided.
