- Elah (Aramaic for God) (r. 930-929 BC by James Ussher, or 886-885 BC by Thiele) was the fourth king of the Northern Kingdom of Israel. He reigned for two years. His reign was remarkable only for how it ended. His father was Baasha, and his death fulfilled a baleful prophecy given Baasha toward the end of his reign. His general, Zimri, surprised him while he was intoxicating himself in the home of his steward, Arza. Zimri killed him, took his throne, and killed all his relatives and associates. Sounds nice and friendly, in a biblical sense
