Jezebel: Evil Seductress or Feminist Icon?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ส.ค. 2024
- Jezebel is synonymous with an immoral woman. A woman who is self-centered and does what she wants. This reputation comes from the book of Kings where Ahab, the King of Israel, marries a Phoenician princess from the city of Tyre named Jezebel. She's a relatively minor character in the Bible but has had a huge cultural impact. Today we explore what we can say about this figure from the few Biblical references of her as well as the extrabiblical and archaeological sources available. Is her reputation deserved? Is she more complicated than most believe? Is it a mix of both? Let's dig in.

Excellent overview!
Great work. She falls in line with many other dominant female figures that sought to secure the legacy of their dynastic line. Naqia of Assyria and the Persian queens of the 5th and 4th centuries are other examples...
Wasn't Dido the sister of Pygmalion rather than his wife?
Also, without knowing the wives and mothers of Baasha, Zimri, Tibni and Omri, it's hard to say for sure that there were no family connections from Jeroboam to Omri, right?
Amitai Baruchi-Unna makes an interesting case that Jehu was a scion of Omri, with his grandfather Nimshi being a son of Omri.
I read somewhere that the cult of Yahvé was only introduced to Israel by the Omrid dynasty. So it must have been very recent c850. Not surprising there were other Gods at the same time
Does anyone do good videos on Hebrew phonology? I'd love to hear a reconstruction of Hebrew / Canaanite pre-lenition
i just realized that she has a theophoric name
No Yahvistic orthodoxy at the time of Jezebel. This is anachronistic. Kings was written c650bc
Personally I don't buy these Solomon references. Kings was written a few of centuries after.
A SPIRIT!
Harlot Spirit!
