Omri, who reigned from approximately 885 to 874 BC, purchased the hill of Samaria from Shemer for two talents of silver and fortified it, naming the city after the original owner of the land (<a href="/1_kings/16-24.htm">1 Kings 16:24</a>). This strategic location provided a strong defensive position and became the political and cultural center of the Northern Kingdom.<br><br><b>Significance in Israel's History</b><br><br>Samaria served as the capital for the Northern Kingdom until its fall to the Assyrians in 722 BC. It was a hub of political power and religious activity, often associated with the idolatrous practices introduced by Omri and his successors, including Ahab, who further entrenched the worship of Baal (<a href="/1_kings/16-30.htm">1 Kings 16:30-33</a>). Despite its association with idolatry, Samaria was also a place where prophets like Elijah and Elisha ministered, calling the people back to the worship of Yahweh.<br><br><b>Siege by Ben-Hadad</b><br><br>One of the significant events in the history of Samaria was its siege by Ben-Hadad, the king of Aram (Syria). This event is recorded in <a href="/bsb/1_kings/20.htm">1 Kings 20</a>. Ben-Hadad, along with thirty-two allied kings, besieged Samaria, demanding its surrender and the wealth of its inhabitants. Ahab, the king of Israel at the time, initially agreed to Ben-Hadad's demands but later resisted when the demands became more severe (<a href="/1_kings/20.htm">1 Kings 20:1-9</a>).<br><br>The siege was marked by divine intervention. A prophet came to Ahab, assuring him of victory over the Arameans, stating, "This is what the LORD says: ‘Have you seen this vast army? Behold, I will deliver it into your hand today, and you will know that I am the LORD’” (<a href="/1_kings/20-13.htm">1 Kings 20:13</a>). Despite being vastly outnumbered, the Israelites, under Ahab's leadership, achieved a miraculous victory, driving the Arameans away.<br><br><b>Theological Implications</b><br><br>The siege of Samaria by Ben-Hadad highlights several theological themes. It underscores the sovereignty of God over the nations and His ability to deliver His people against overwhelming odds. The event also serves as a reminder of God's faithfulness to His covenant, even when His people are led by a king like Ahab, who was often unfaithful. The victory was not due to Israel's military might but to the LORD's intervention, emphasizing the importance of reliance on God rather than human strength.<br><br><b>Archaeological Insights</b><br><br>Archaeological excavations at the site of ancient Samaria, known today as Sebastia, have uncovered significant findings that corroborate the biblical narrative. The remains of Omri's palace, along with other structures, provide insight into the city's layout and the opulence of its rulers. These findings offer a glimpse into the historical and cultural context of the biblical accounts, enriching our understanding of the events that took place there.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>Samaria's history, particularly its siege by Ben-Hadad, is a testament to the complex interplay of political power, religious faithfulness, and divine intervention in the history of Israel. The city's account is a vivid reminder of the consequences of idolatry and the enduring mercy of God towards His people.<a name="nav" id="nav"></a><div class="vheading2">Nave's Topical Index</div><span class="rtext"><a href="/context/1_kings/20-1.htm">1 Kings 20:1</a></span><br>And Benhadad the king of Syria gathered all his host together: and there were thirty and two kings with him, and horses, and chariots; and he went up and besieged Samaria, and warred against it.<br><span class="source">Nave's Topical Index</span><p><span class="rtext"><a href="/context/2_kings/6-24.htm">2 Kings 6:24-33</a></span><br>And it came to pass after this, that Benhadad king of Syria gathered all his host, and went up, and besieged Samaria.<br><span class="source">Nave's Topical Index</span><p><span class="rtext"><a href="/context/2_kings/7-1.htm">2 Kings 7:1</a></span><br>Then Elisha said, Hear you the word of the LORD; Thus said the LORD, To morrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.<br><span class="source">Nave's Topical Index</span><p><a name="lib" id="lib"></a><div class="vheading2">Library</div><p><a href="/library/sayce/early_israel_and_the_surrounding_nations/chapter_vi_babylonia_and_assyria.htm"><span class="l">Babylonia and Assyria</span></a> <br><b>...</b> It was a double <b>city</b>, <b>built</b> on either side of the <b>...</b> His first achievement was the capture<br> of <b>Samaria</b>. <b>...</b> spoil, however, was found in the half-ruined <b>city</b>; and the <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">/.../early israel and the surrounding nations/chapter vi babylonia and assyria.htm</font><p><a href="/library/maspero/history_of_egypt_chaldaea_syria_babylonia_and_assyria_v_6/chapter_iiithe_hebrews_and_the.htm"><span class="l">The Hebrews and the Philistines --Damascus</span></a> <br><b>...</b> <b>Benhadad</b> I.--- <b>Omri</b> and the foundation of <b>Samaria</b>: Ahab and the <b>...</b> took up his residence<br> there, and <b>built</b> on the <b>...</b> Abimelech then fought against the <b>city</b> and took it <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">/.../chapter iiithe hebrews and the.htm</font><p><a href="/library/maspero/history_of_egypt_chaldaea_syria_babylonia_and_assyria_v_7/chapter_iitiglath-pileser_iii_and_the.htm"><span class="l">Tiglath-Pileser iii.
