What did Ahab do in the Bible

Ahab was the seventh king of the Northern Kingdom of Israel. He famously married the evil Tyrian princess Jezebel who dragged Ahab deeper into idolatry and murder. He also famously had Naboth murdered in order to get his property. All of Ahab’s terrible sins brought him several warnings from prophets, most notably Elijah the Prophet. Ahab died as a result of his sinful life. He bled to death in battle, and his blood was dishonored after his death.
