Ahab followed in his father’s ways.He was a wicked king. He married Jezebel and submitted to her lead too.

1 Kings 16:31
And it came to pass, as if it had been a light thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, that he took to wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Zidonians, and went and served Baal, and worshipped him.

Elijah challenged Ahab to bring all of the Israeli people, including Baal's prophets to Mount Carmel. So, Ahab did as he was asked.

In front the multitudes, Elijah challenged the prophets of Baal to bring fire and rain, yet they failed to do so. Elijah then prayed to his God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, Yaweh to bring fire and rain. Yaweh brought fire and rain to the amazement of all but Elijah.

Elijah was feeling courageous until Jezebel found out what he had done to her prophets.She was furious and Elijah felt it was time to disappear again.

Basically, it's because of the fact that Elijah was not afraid to stand up to King Ahab, but when it came to Queen Jezebel, Elijah was scared, and it made all the difference in the way each treated Elijah. Ahab treated him decently, due to the fact he'd seen the miracles wrought by Elijah in the name of Yaweh and feared Elijah because of that.

Jezebel on the other hand, wasn't affected in anyway but anger by these miracles and deed done by Elijah in the name of Yaweh, and sought to kill Elijah. She realized that by seeking to kill him, he would be too scared to defy her.

In other words, it was because of how each one felt towards the miracles done by Elijah in the name of Yaweh.

Hope this helps!

Answer from: Quest

the expansion of the rule of empires over other territories took place as a result of several reasons including economic, ethnocentric, political, and religious, and exploratory purposes.

in terms of economic purposes: imperial governments aimed to maximize profits and with that purpose they neeeded cheap labor, access to or control of markets to sell or buy products. they also desired to find natural resources (precious metals and land). in the awake of industrial revolution, dependent colonies provided the necessary raw materials that european factories and market needed to manufacture products.

ethnocentric: many territories were conquered by imperial territories in an attempt to spread their cultures, values and belief as they considered them to be superior. in the late 19th century, for example, european powers held the racist belief that inferior races should be conquered in order to “civilize” them.

political: another reason that drove conquer and expansion was patriotism and growing imperial power. it refers to national prestige, pride, and security. empires sought strategic territory to ensure access for their navies and armies around the world.

religious: the aim of converting new member of other religions was another factor that prompted expansion. christian missionaries from europe established churches in conquered territories during the nineteenth century. thus, they spread western cultural values. furthermore, the imperial nation’s language was spread as well, through educational and religious interactions.

exploratory: imperial nations or their citizens aimed to explore territory that was unknown to them, for different purposes including medical or scientific research, however, at the very beginning, they did it to embark on adventure. furthermore, imperial explorers sought to discover, map, and claim territory before their imperial competition did, for national and personal glory as well as to realize the imperialist goal of expansion.
