Contextual Overview

17 The word of the LORD came to Eliyah the Tishbi, saying, 18 Arise, go down to meet Ach'av king of Yisra'el, who dwells in Shomron: behold, he is in the vineyard of Navot, where he is gone down to take possession of it. 19 You shall speak to him, saying, Thus says the LORD, Have you killed and also taken possession? You shall speak to him, saying, Thus says the LORD, In the place where dogs licked the blood of Navot shall dogs lick your blood, even your. 20 Ach'av said to Eliyah, Have you found me, my enemy? He answered, I have found you, because you have sold yourself to do that which is evil in the sight of the LORD. 21 Behold, I will bring evil on you, and will utterly sweep you away and will cut off from Ach'av every man-child, and him who is shut up and him who is left at large in Yisra'el: 22 and I will make your house like the house of Yarov`am the son of Nevat, and like the house of Ba`sha the son of Achiyah for the provocation with which you have provoked me to anger, and have made Yisra'el to sin. 23 Of Izevel also spoke the LORD, saying, The dogs shall eat Izevel by the rampart of Yizre`el. 24 Him who dies of Ach'av in the city the dogs shall eat; and him who dies in the field shall the birds of the sky eat. 25 (But there was none like Ach'av, who did sell himself to do that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, whom Izevel his wife stirred up. 26 He did very abominably in following idols, according to all that the Amori did, whom the LORD cast out before the children of Yisra'el.)

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the word of the Lord came to Elijah the Tishbite,.... After he was gone from Ahab, and Ahab had been some time in this humble posture; the Targum calls it the word of prophecy, and so it was, as the next verse shows: saying: as follows.
