Also Jezebel had set up false witnesses against a godly man, Naboth, to get him killed so Ahab could take possession of Naboth’s vineyard. This is typing out how the priests and Pharisees set up false witnesses against Jesus and had him killed so they could take possession of the spiritual vineyard.

So who is this woman Jezebel? Let the Scripture identify her for us.

Re 2:18 And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass; 2:19 I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first.

Re 2:20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.**

Re 2:21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. 2:22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.

Re 2:23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.

Re 2:24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.

Now lets take a look first at the church before this one:

Re 2:13 I know thy works and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.

Re 2:14 But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.

Re 2:15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes, which thing I hate. 2:16 Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.

This is saying that Satan’s seat, or his throne was in that church. The true Saints were being murdered here and Satan dwelt there. This church was primarily the kingdom of Satan. A few Christians were in it but were being killed.

Re 2:6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.

Now what is this ‘deeds�?of the Nicolaitanes which God hated? See that it is linked with this worship of idols which is spiritual fornication or adultery against God. Also it is connected with the martyrdom of the true Saints. See Re 2:14.. It goes to a ‘doctrine�?of Balaam-- which was teaching the children of Israel to eat things sacrificed unto idols and to commit fornication. So then this is the same thing as the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes = idol worship which is spiritual fornication. God said that he hates this thing. God hates idol worship.

Re 2:20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.

So see here that Jezebel is also said to seduce God’s servants to commit fornication and eat things sacrificed unto idols. Jezebel being called a prophetess identifies her as a ‘church�? This is how she seduces God’s servants = she presents herself as a church.
