  Old Testament
  In the Old Testament, Jezebel is the name of a Queen of Israel, whose story is told in 1 Kings. Jezebel was a Phoenician princess, the daughter of King Ithobaal I of Tyre, who married King Ahab. The Bible blames her for turning Ahab away from the true God, and towards the worship of her god, Baal. She is accused of killing the prophets of the Lord, and Elijah charges her with abominations. After Ahab's death she continued to rule through her sons Ahaziah and Joram. When these were killed by Jehu, Jezebel was also killed, and her body eaten by dogs in fulfillment of Elijah's prophecy.
  
  Jezebel is said to be the great aunt of Queen Dido, founder of Carthage.
