Contextual Overview

⁵ His wife Jezebel came to him and said, "Why is your spirit so troubled that you are not eating food?" ⁶ He said to her, "Because I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite. I said to him, ‘Give me your grape-field for money. Or I will give you another field for it, if you like.' But he said, ‘I will not give you my grape-field.'" ⁷ Jezebel his wife said to him, "Do you now rule over Israel? Get up, eat food, and let your heart be filled with joy. I will give you the grape-field of Naboth the Jezreelite." ⁸ So she wrote letters in Ahab's name and put the mark of his name on them. She sent letters to the leaders and the king's sons who were living with Naboth in his city. ⁹ She wrote in the letters, saying, "Tell the people that it is a time when they should not eat. And put Naboth in front of the people. ¹⁰ Seat two men of no worth beside him. And have them speak against him, saying, ‘You spoke against God and the king.' Then take him out and kill him with stones." ¹¹ So the leaders and king's sons who lived in Naboth's city did just as Jezebel had written to them in the letters she had sent. ¹² They told the people that it was a time when they should not eat. And they put Naboth in front of the people. ¹³ Then the two men of no worth came in and sat beside him. These men spoke against Naboth in front of the people, saying, "Naboth spoke against God and the king." So they took him outside the city and killed him with stones. ¹⁴ Then they sent news to Jezebel, saying, "Naboth has been killed with stones. He is dead."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then they sent to Jezebel, saying, Naboth is stoned, and is dead. Not only stoned, but stoned to death. This message was sent to her from the magistrates of Jezreel; for though the letters came in Ahab's name, they might be privately informed that this was a scheme of Jezebel's; besides, they knew she had the sway at court, and especially that the news of this man's death would be acceptable to her, and the more if he was of the 7000 that would not bow the knee to Baal.
