Ezekiel 16:28

28 Still not satisfied, you prostituted yourself to the Assyrians, but they weren't enough for you either.

Ezekiel 16:28 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 16:28

Thou hast played the whore also with the Assyrians
By entering into alliances with them, and worshipping their idols; which was done in the times of Ahaz, who sent to Tiglathpileser king of Assyria for help, and to Damascus for the fashion of the altar there, and built one according to it, ( 2 Kings 7:10 2 Kings 7:11 ) ; because thou wast unsatiable;
not content with the alliance and idolatries of the Egyptians: yea, thou hast played the harlot with them;
with the Assyrians: and yet couldest not be satisfied;
with their idols, and the worship of them, but sought out for new gods, and new modes of worship; like a lewd woman, who having prostituted herself to one, and to another, yet remains insatiable, and seeks out for other lovers.

Ezekiel 16:28 In-Context

26 You prostituted yourself with the Egyptians, your neighbors with the large sexual organs, and as you added to your seductions, you provoked me to anger.
27 So I used my power against you, cut off your allowance, and gave you up to the passions of the Philistine women who had been confounded by your infamous ways and had rejected you.
28 Still not satisfied, you prostituted yourself to the Assyrians, but they weren't enough for you either.
29 So you prostituted yourself with the Babylonians, the land of traders, but again you weren't satisfied.
30 How sick was your heart—the LORD God proclaims—that you could do all these things, the deeds of a hardened prostitute.
