Answer Details
King Ahab demanded Naboth's vineyard because he wanted to add it to his multiple vineyards. The Bible story in 1 Kings 21 tells us that Naboth's vineyard was adjacent to King Ahab's palace in Jezreel, and Ahab desired to use it to expand his own vineyard. Despite offering to buy the vineyard or trade it for a better one, Naboth refused to give up his ancestral inheritance, and Ahab became angry and sullen. With the help of his wife Jezebel, Ahab falsely accused Naboth of blasphemy and had him stoned to death, so that he could then take over the vineyard. Therefore, the main reason King Ahab wanted Naboth's vineyard was to satisfy his own greed and expand his wealth, regardless of the consequences for Naboth and his family.
