	Naboth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Naboth - fruits, "the Jezreelite," was the owner of a portion of ground on the eastern slope of the hill of Jezreel (2 Kings 9:25, 26).
		Naboth, however, refused on any terms to part with it to the king.
		Jezebel, Ahab's wife, was grievously offended at Naboth's refusal to part with his vineyard.

	29. Naboth’s Vineyard
		Naboth took his stand on the written Word of God and refused to act contrary thereto, even when solicited to do so by the king himself.
		Ahab was greatly displeased by Naboth’s refusal, for in the thwarting of his desire his pride was wounded, and so vexed was he to meet with this denial that he sulked like a spoiled child when his will is crossed.
		The elders and nobles of Israel were base enough to carry out her orders—sure sign was this that the kingdom was ripe for judgment: when those in high places are godless and conscienceless, it will not be long ere the wrath of the Lord falls on those over whom they preside.

	Chapter Naboth of Naboth by Rudyard Kipling
		He was very thin and showed nearly as many ribs as his basket; and he told me a long story about fever and a lawsuit, and an iron cauldron that had been seized by the court in execution of a decree.
		Next afternoon I saw that Naboth had seated himself at the bottom of the slope, down in the dust of the public road, and in the full glare of the sun, with a starved basket of greasy sweets in front of him.
		Naboth bought a blue and white striped blanket, a brass lamp-stand, and a small boy, to cope with the rush of trade, which was tremendous.

		Naboth dies by Jezebel's plot, that the vineyard may escheat to Ahab, ver.
		He is welcome to the fruits of it, welcome to walk in it; Naboth perhaps would have made him a lease of it for his life, to please him; but nothing will please him unless he have an absolute property in it, he and his heirs for ever.
		If Naboth's sons were all put to death, Ahab thought himself entitled to the estate, ob defectum sanguinis--in default of heirs (as our law expresses it); if not, yet, Naboth dying as a criminal, he claimed it ob delictum criminis--as forfeited by his crime.

		So, though he was Ahab's nearest neighbor, Naboth, with religious scruples blended with the pride of ancestry, stood firmly on his rights—and, with an expression of horror on his face and with tones of terror in his words, refused to sell or swap his vineyard to the king.
		Naboth's refusal was a barrier that turned aside the stream of Ahab's desire and changed it into a foiled and foaming whirlpool of sullen sulks.
		Naboth fell to the ground as a lily by hailstones beaten to earth, as a stately cedar uprooted by furious storm.

		He proposed to Naboth to give him a better in exchange, or to obtain it by purchase; but the owner declined to part with it.
		In short, it could not be alienated from the family, and it was on this ground that Naboth (1 Kings 21:3) refused to comply with the king's demand.

	1 Kings 21 - The Murder of Naboth
		Naboth's response was an emphatic "no." His rejection of the otherwise reasonable offer was rooted in the ancient Israelite idea of the land.
		She wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and seat Naboth with high honor among the people; and seat two men, scoundrels, before him to bear witness against him, saying, "You have blasphemed God and the king." Then take him out, and stone him, that he may die.
		Seat Naboth with high honor among the people: This was a treacherous plan - first, to set Naboth in a high place of honor and then to destroy him with lies from the mouths of scoundrels.
