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 ).

The compression ratio is 10 to 1.

As in type 1,, it provides arterial blood to the interlobular septa, and an extremely rich anastomotic pleural supply is seen ( figs. 9, 10 ).

Sections of sweet clover stem and root tumors were treated with 1: 10 solution of Af for 30 minutes, washed in buffered saline for 15 minutes, stained with Af for 30 minutes, and washed for 15 minutes in Aj.

This specific fluorescence was readily distinguished from the light green nonspecific fluorescence in consecutive sections stained with 1: 10 dilution of NS and Af or with Af alone.

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.

With this purified conjugate the best staining procedure consisted of treating the sections with 1: 10 dilution of Af for 30 minutes, washing with PBS for 15 minutes, staining with Af for 30 minutes, and washing with PBS for 15 minutes.

The reader will find it helpful to think of the special case when the primes are of degree 1, and even more particularly, to think of the proof of Theorem 10, a special case of this theorem.

Radiation, therefore, is at an initial cost disadvantage even though only 1 to 10 per cent as much radiation energy as heat energy is required for radiopasteurization or radiosterilization.

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.

The practical definition may lead to confusion with the definition of a coulomb ( i. e., 1 amp-second ), but in practical terms this means that measures of a constant current ( e. g., the nominal flow of charge per second through a simple circuit ) will be defined in amperes ( e. g., " a 20 mA circuit ") and the flow of charge through a circuit over a period of time will be defined in coulombs ( e. g., " a variable-current circuit that flows a total of 10 coulombs over 5 seconds ").
