Zimri - King of Israel (Divided)

Zimri can be best known as the King of the Week! Why? He only ruled for 7 days!

Zimri a captain for King Elah, Son of King Baasha, killed his king along with the whole house of Baasha to claim the kingship for himself. However, that victory did not last. Just 7 days later, the people retaliated, led by another captian named Omri and overtook the city. Seeing this, Zimri ran into the castle of the king's house and burn it down on top of himself and died.
