Biblical costumer about an Israeli king who marries the pagan Jezebel. She convinces him to build a temple to her god, Baal, which causes internal strife among the people of Israel. One day when they are praying for rain, Baal fails to deliver, but the prophet Elijah succeeds. John Hoyt plays both Elijah and the lecturer who provides narration for the wraparound segments. Paulette Goddard is too old for the part of Jezebel. More appropriate for Sunday school than entertainment, even Three Stooges replacement Joe Besser fails to liven it up.
