Elijah and King Ahaziah

1 After the death of King Ahab of Israel the country of Moab rebelled against Israel.

² King Ahaziah of Israel fell off the balcony on the roof of his palace in Samaria and was seriously injured. So he sent some messengers to consult Baalzebub, the god of the Philistine city of Ekron, in order to find out whether or not he would recover.
