Ahab covets, Naboth dies. God sends Elijah to condemn Ahab and pronounce judgment for his sin. He did not celebrate the sin, or make light of it. He denounced the sin, pronounced death, and Ahab on hearing all this repented.
Ahab finally has someone hold him accountable, finally has someone tell him he is in the wrong and Ahab listens. How will they know of their sin unless we tell them of it?
