Wesley's Notes for 1 Kings 21:11

21:9 A fast - To remove all suspicion of evil design in Ahab, andto beget a good opinion of him amongst his people, as if he were grownzealous for God's honour, and careful of his people's welfare, andtherefore desirous to enquire into all those sins which provoked Godagainst them. On high - On a scaffold, or high - place, where malefactorswere usually placed, that they might be seen, and heard by all the people.

21:10 Blaspheme God and the king - Indeed his blaspheming God wouldonly be the forfeiture of his life, not his estate. Therefore he ischarged with treason also, that his estate may be confiscated, and soAhab have his vineyard.

21:13 Stoned him - And it seems his sons too, either with him or afterhim. For God afterward says, (#2Kings 9:26|)I have seen the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons.Let us commit the keeping of our lives and comforts to God; for innocenceitself will not always be our security.
