Zimri appears in two distinct biblical stories: a man of Israel who was slain by Phinehas for taking a Midianite wife in the wilderness, and a captain who conspired against King Elah and reigned for just seven days before being overthrown and burned in his palace. The second Zimri's brief, violent reign was swiftly judged.
