Written by the Winners: Was Queen Jezebel the Victim of Bad Press?

Queen Jezebel, wife of King Ahab, has been considered the most evil queen in the Bible.  It is told that she led the people into idolatry and was the instigator of several nefarious actions.  However, how might her story have been written by the Phoenician press of her hometown?  Was the description of her deeds the product of a smear campaign?  During this session we will look at the exploits of Jezebel as described in the Book of Kings and try to reach a conclusion.
