Zimri (king)
Zimri or Zambri (; (ラテン語:Zambri)) was a king of Israel for seven days. William F. Albright has dated his reign to 876 BCE, while E. R. Thiele offers the date 885 BCE.〔Edwin Thiele, ''The Mysterious Numbers of the Hebrew Kings'', (1st ed.; New York: Macmillan, 1951; 2d ed.; Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1965; 3rd ed.; Grand Rapids: Zondervan/Kregel, 1983). ISBN 0-8254-3825-X, 9780825438257〕 His story is told in ''1 Kings'', Chapter 16.
== In the Bible ==
He was the chariot commander who murdered king Elah and all his family members at Tirzah, as Elah was drinking in the house of Arza, his steward.〔(Scott, Thomas and Henry, Matthew. ''The Comprehensive Commentary on the Holy Bible: Ruth-Psalm LXIII'', Fessenden and Company, 1836 )〕 Zimri succeeded Elah as king. However, Zimri reigned only seven days, because the army elected Omri as king, and with their support laid siege to Tirzah. Finding his position untenable, Zimri set fire to the palace and perished.
Omri became king only after four years of war with Tibni, another claimant to the throne of Israel.
The name Zimri became a byword for a traitor who murdered his master. When Jehu led a bloody military revolt to seize the throne of Israel, killed both Jehoram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah, and entered the citadel of Jezreel to execute Queen Jezebel, she greeted him with the words: "Is it peace, Zimri, you murderer of your master?" (2 Kings 9:31). In John Dryden's ''Absalom and Achitophel'', the character of Zimri stands for the Duke of Buckingham.
