2 Kings 1
FOR BAAL-ZEBUB IN EKRON(2 KINGS 1:1-8)
Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron (1)
“Lord of the flies” or “Fly god”
By the time of Jesus: Beelzebub—”Lord of the dung”

Is there no God in Israel?
What’d he look like?!(7-8)
FOR ELIJAH(2 KINGS 1:9-16)
Captains address, “O man of God” (9,11,13)Elijah’s answer to the first two (10,12 cf. Luke 9:51-
56)“If I am a man of God let fire come down from
heaven…”Why does He go with the third captain? (13-15)
Humility of the captainThe angel of the LORD directed him16 Then he said to him, "Thus says the LORD, 'Because you
have sent messengers to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron—is it because there is no God in Israel to inquire of His word?—therefore you shall not come down from the bed where
you have gone up, but shall surely die.'”- 2 Kings 16:17 NASB-
17 So Ahaziah died according to the word of the LORD which Elijah had spoken. And because he had no son, Jehoram became
king in his place…
