Jezebel Meaning

From the Hebrew ('Izevel) which meant "not exalted". In the Old Testament this is the name of the evil wife of Ahab, king of Israel. She is eaten by dogs, fulfilling Elijah's prophecy. Jezebel originates in Hebrew language and means "one that is not noble". In the Bible, Jezebel was a princess and the wife of Ahab, king of north Israel. As a feminine given name it is very rare in the United States.
