Explanation preview
This verse sits inside the narrator's aside in 1 Kings 21, explaining why Ahab's crimes were so severe. The writer pauses the story of Naboth's vineyard to say that Ahab sold himself to evil, urged on by Jezebel, and that his idolatry was as detestable as that of the Amorites, the peoples the LORD had driven out before Israel.
