1 Kings chapters 16 – 22 tells the story of Ahab and Jezebel, and indicates that Jezebel was a bad influence on Ahab.

According to the Tanakh, however, Ahab with 7, 000 troops had previously overthrown Ben-hadad and his thirty-two kings, who had come to lay siege to Samaria, and in the following year obtained a decisive victory over him at Aphek, probably in the plain of Sharon at Antipatris ( 1 Kings 20 ).

The first encounter has to do with Elijah, whom Ahab refers to as " the troubler of Israel " ( 1 Kings 18: 17 ), in which Elijah predicts a drought ( 1 Kings 17: 1 ).

The contest ends when Elijah's God consumes the offering which the Baal worshipers could not induce their god to touch, after which Elijah slaughters the Baal prophets ( 1 Kings 18: 17 – 40 ).

The second encounter is between Ahab and two unnamed prophets in 1 Kings 20: 22.

The third is when Elijah confronts Ahab over Ahab and Jezebel's execution of Naboth and usurpation of his land in 1 Kings 21.

The fourth encounter is with Micaiah, the prophet who, when asked for advice on a military campaign, first assures Ahab he will be successful and ultimately gives Ahab a glimpse into God's plan for Ahab to die in battle ( 1 Kings 22 ).

While the above passages from 1 Kings do not view Ahab unfavourably, there are others which are less friendly.

Essentially, 1 Kings 16: 29 through 20: 40 is the story of Ahab's reign.

Indeed, he is referred to, for this and other things as being " more evil than all the kings before him " ( 1 Kings 16: 30 ).

His denunciation of the royal dynasty of Israel, and his emphatic insistence on the worship of Yahweh and Yahweh alone, illustrated by the contest between Yahweh and Baal on Mount Carmel, as told in 1 Kings 18, form the keynote to a period which culminated in the accession of Jehu, an event in which Elijah's chosen disciple Elisha was the leading figure.

When Abiathar was dismissed from the priesthood by King Solomon for having taken part in Adonijah's conspiracy against David, his life was spared because he had formerly borne the Ark ( 1 Kings 2: 26 ).

Holy of Holies ), was prepared to receive and house the Ark ( 1 Kings 6: 19 ); and when the Temple was dedicated, the Ark — containing the original tablets of the Ten Commandments — was placed therein ( 1 Kings 8: 6-9 ).

Among them, according to the U.S. Department of Commerce, are: ( 1 ) shorter work weeks, ( 2 ) higher pay, ( 3 ) longer paid vacations, ( 4 ) better transportation, ( 5 ) earlier retirement, and ( 6 ) more education.

A satisfactory cloud was produced even though these nozzles were only about 5 per cent efficient in producing an initial cloud in the size range of 1 to 5 microns.

At the top of Figure 5, for example, the Onset range and Completion range lines for the chosen growth center have been drawn for girls according to their mean and standard deviation values in Table 1.

In all the above procedures, when the intermediate sera were diluted to 1: 10 or 1: 100 with 0.85% saline, the specific and nonspecific fluorescence were not appreciably reduced, whereas, a dilution of the intermediate sera to 1: 500 or diluting the Af to 1: 5 greatly reduced specific fluorescence.

For example, the marksman gets 5 shots, but we take his score to be the number of shots before his first bull's-eye, that is, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 ( or 5, if he gets no bull's-eye ).

The number of successes on each shot is a value of a random variable that has values 0 or 1, and there are 5 such random variables here.

To effect these operations, five elements exist ( 1 ) surface, ( 2 ) air, ( 3 ) mines, ( 4 ) submarine, and ( 5 ) fixed installations.

The chief factors responsible for the spoilage of fresh foodstuffs are ( 1 ) microorganisms such as bacteria, molds, and yeasts, ( 2 ) enzymes, ( 3 ) insects, ( 4 ) sprouting, and ( 5 ) chemical reactions.

Both the BIH scale and A. 1 was defined by an epoch at the beginning of 1958: it was set to read Julian Date 2436204. 5 ( 1 January 1958 00: 00: 00 ) at the corresponding UT2 instant.

Starting from Julian Date 2443144. 5 ( 1 January 1977 00: 00: 00 ), corrections were applied to the output of all participating clocks, so that TAI would correspond to proper time at mean sea level ( the geoid ).

Where the Roman model ( like most modern Japanese ) has 4 plus 1 bead per decimal place, the standard suanpan has 5 plus 2, allowing use with a hexadecimal numeral system.

In the left part there were four beads, which in the first row have unitary values ( 1, 2, 3, and 4 ), and in the right side there are three beads with values of 5, 10, and 15 respectively.

By comparing the form of several yupanas, researchers found that calculations were based using the Fibonacci sequence 1, 1, 2, 3, 5 and powers of 10, 20 and 40 as place values for the different fields in the instrument.

Very small particles, however, in a size range of 1 to 4 microns in diameter are capable of passing these impinging barriers and entering the alveolar bed of the lungs.

These have been labeled Regions 1, 2, and 4, respectively, in Fig. 1.

After passing Af through DEAE-cellulose, the titer of antibodies to WTV in the specific fraction was 1: 4 of the titer before such passage ( precipitin ring tests by R. F. Whitcomb ) ; ;

but mere dilution of the conjugate to 1: 4 did not satisfactorily remove nonspecific staining.

For an experiment to qualify as a binomial experiment, it must have four properties: ( 1 ) there must be a fixed number of trials, ( 2 ) each trial must result in a `` success '' or a `` failure '' ( a binomial trial ), ( 3 ) all trials must have identical probabilities of success, ( 4 ) the trials must be independent of each other.

For Yokuts, I tabulated these 71 items in five columns, according as they were expressed by 1, 2, 3, 4, and more than 4 stems.

As to relative frequencies of competing roots ( 7 - 1 vs. 4 - 4, etc. ), Thomas with his ' weighting ' seems to be the first to have considered the significance this might have.

Consequently, if the shear angle **yf is replaced by the rupture angle Af, the relationships as described in eqns. ( 1 ), ( 2 ), ( 4 ), and ( 6 ) will directly apply.

For hundreds of years, the evidence available consisted of ( 1 ) the captain's fragmentary journal, ( 2 ) a highly prejudiced account by one of the survivors, ( 3 ) a note found in a dead man's desk on board, and ( 4 ) several second-hand reports.

The proposal would have to receive final legislative approval, by two-thirds majorities, before March 1 to be printed on the April 4 ballot, Roberts said.

Cohen ( 1992 ) suggests effect sizes for various indexes, including ƒ ( where 0. 1 is a small effect, 0. 25 is a medium effect and 0. 4 is a large effect ).
