Sermon Bible Commentary - 1 Kings 21:2-3

1 Kings 21:2-3 From this story we learn: (1) what a sacred thing property is; that a man's possessions (if they be justly come by) belong to him, in the sight of God as well as in the sight of man, and that God will uphold and avenge the man's right. Naboth loved his own land, and therefore he had a right to keep it. We may say that it was but a fancy of his, if he could have a better vineyard, or the worth of it in money. Remember, at least, that God respected that fancy of his, and justified... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - 1 Kings 21:10

1 Kings 21:10 Ahab is akin, both in his sin and his recovery, to the mass of mankind. He has neither sinned like Saul, nor will he mourn like David. He has been pusillanimous in his sin, and he will not be other than faint-hearted in his return to God. He moves, on the whole, in that middle sphere of moral life which is at best never heroic, and at worst something better than detestable, and which is, after all, the sphere of the mass of humankind. I. Observe, first, that the repentance of... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - 1 Kings 21:20

1 Kings 21:20 In this story there are three things to be noticed: I. The cowardice of guilt. Ahab quailed before Elijah like a coward and a slave. A guilty conscience can make a coward even of a king. II. Friends mistaken for enemies. Ahab called Elijah his enemy. He thought him his enemy because he did not encourage him in his sins, as others did, but reproved him and tried to turn him from them. There are people who take God for their Enemy, just as Ahab called Elijah by this name. Surely sin... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - 1 Kings 21:25

1 Kings 21:25 If the reign of Ahab had been written in any book save the Bible, far less heavy would be the thunder-clouds which gather round his name. Even the Bible gives a hint of better things: "The ivory houses that he made and all the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?" But it is the history of religion in Ahab and under Ahab that the Bible would teach us; and so the fairer side, which is the world's side, only shows itself to... read more

DISCOURSE: 352AHAB AND ELIJAH IN NABOTH’S VINEYARD1 Kings 21:20. And Ahab said to Elijah, Hast thou found me, O mine enemy? And he answered, I have found thee.THE office of a minister is doubtless the most honourable that can be sustained by man; but it is at the same time the most arduous. If indeed the people to whom we carry the glad tidings of salvation were willing to put away their sins and embrace the proffered mercy, there would be comparatively little difficulty in discharging our... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - 1 Kings 21:1-29

Chapter 21Now it came to pass after these things, that there was a fellow by the name of Naboth who had a vineyard, down in the area of mount Gilboa ( 1 Kings 21:1 ).And it was an excellent vineyard and it was next to property that Ahab owned, and Ahab desired Naboth's vineyard.And so he came to him and he said, I'd like to buy your vineyard, name your price ( 1 Kings 21:2 ).And Naboth said, Hey, it's the family's. If I sell it, then I'm selling that which is the family's property. I don't want... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - 1 Kings 21:1-29

1 Kings 21:3 . The Lord forbid it me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers. Moses forbids the sale of an inheritance. Leviticus 25:23. Naboth had sons, it is presumed, and the sale would have robbed them; another vineyard would not have been the inheritance of their fathers. As Naboth knew the character of the reigning family, this refusal was an act of high heroic fortitude. 1 Kings 21:8 . She wrote letters in Ahab’s name: a crime which would have forfeited the life of... read more

1 Kings 21:2-16Give me thy vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs.Ahab’s garden of herbsWalking in the garden, what do we see?1. Covetousness. God’s brand is upon covetousness. Contentment is a Christian duty. Not sinful is the desire for comfort, for sufficiency; it is the inordinate desire that is sinful. Does the prosperity of another pain us? Do we desire for ourselves that which belongs to another? Then we are breaking the commandment--“Thou shall not covet.”2. Covetousness... read more

1 Kings 21:3The Lord forbid that I should give the inheritance of my fathers unto thee.The reply of Naboth, and its lessonsI. The reply of Naboth.1. It first assures us that he is a conscientious man, and a worshipper of Jehovah. No; but from a conviction of his duty to God as the Supreme Lawgiver: and, therefore, rather than offend Him, or violate His will, he would incur the anger and vengeful power of Ahab.2. Hence the moral heroism of the reply--similar to that which distinguished the... read more

1 Kings 21:4And Ahab came into his house heavy and displeased.Temper-a deadly sinIn other and less dignified words, Ahab, when he could not get his own way, went to bed in a sulk. I take it that all those who have tried even to be close students of human nature are agreed that life as a rule suffers most, not from the heroic sin or from the deep passion, but from little mean and contemptible sins. These sins are like the grit in the eye--they incense and inflame until it happens that a great... read more
