Eth-baal
     with Baal, a king of Sidon (B.C. 940-908), father of Jezebel,
     who was the wife of Ahab (1 Kings 16:31). He is said to have
     been also a priest of Astarte, whose worship was closely allied
     to that of Baal, and this may account for his daughter's zeal in
     promoting idolatry in Israel. This marriage of Ahab was most
     fatal to both Israel and Judah. Dido, the founder of Carthage,
     was his granddaughter.
