He and his sons were promptly executed. The vigorous [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elijah Elijah] appeared on the scene denouncing [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahab Ahab] for the murder of the Naboths.

But the reform did not succeed until the [[Rural|country]] landlord [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jehu Jehu] joined forces with the [[gypsy]] chieftain [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jehonadab Jehonadab] to destroy the [[prophets]] (real estate agents) of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baal Baal] at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samaria Samaria].

97:9.20 New life appeared as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jehoash_of_Judah Jehoash] and his son [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeroboam Jeroboam] delivered [[Israel]] from its enemies. But by this time there ruled in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samaria Samaria] a [[Crime|gangster]]-[[nobility]] whose depredations rivaled those of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David Davidic] [[dynasty]] of olden days.
