Jézabel
In the Tanakh and the Old Testament, Jézabel is a queen of Israel, whose history is told in the First book of the Kings.
Jézabel was a princess phenician, girl of the king of Tyr Ithobaal Ier, which married the king Achab.
The Bible reproaches him for diverting Achab of truth God and for adoring his god Baal. She is shown to kill the prophets of the Lord, and Élie curses it. After the death of Achab, it continued to reign with its sons. When those were killed, Jézabel was also killed, and its body was eaten by dogs, thus carrying out the prophecy of Élie.
There is also Jézabel in the Apocalypse, in the passage of the " letters with the churches which are in Asie". It is a pseudo-prophetess related to the nicolaïtes.
There off exists a seal of Jezabel at that time, quoted by the Egyptologist Kenneth Anderson Kitchen in its book One the Reliability the Old Testament , which could be that of the character of the Bible.
