"THUS SAITH THE LORD, IN THE PLACE WHERE DOGS LICKED THE BLOOD OF NABOTH SHALL DOGS LICK THV BLOOD, EVEN THINE." The fruits of schism were ripening in the kingdom of Israel. While Judah remained in comparative tranquillity, still under the descendants of the royal house of David, the sister-realm was the prey of continual revolutions, and the scene of the most revolting iniquities. Rebellion in the State had led on to separation in the Church, and separation in the Church had gone downward, through various stages and degrees of error, till we find idolatry irrevocably fixed within the bounds of that distracted kingdom.

It is to be expected that not only should the manners of this time be generally corrupt, but that we should be able to fix upon certain striking acts symbolizing the general depravity. And no one who reads the account of the judicial murder of Naboth can fail to execrate a crime of the deepest dye. It was a crime as atrocious in its details as miserable in its results.

Beware of the sin of Ahab. But some of you will say, "why am I to beware of this sin-I am gentle and kindly-I am not tempted to cruelty and bloodshedding. Is thy servant a dog that he should do this thing?
