“And thou shalt smite the house of Ahab thy master, that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord, at the hand of Jezebel.”
You shall strike down the house of Ahab your master, that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the LORD, shed by the hand of Jezebel — the divine commission specifies the purpose: judgment upon Ahab's house for murdering the LORD's prophets. Jezebel's bloodguilt is particularly noted.
