Ezekiel 23:44 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 23:44

Yet they went in unto her
Made a league with one another, and joined in idolatrous worship: as they go in unto a woman that playeth the harlot;
with the same heat of lust, with the same greediness and eager desire as young men do when they go into a brothel house where a beautiful harlot lives: so went they in unto Aholah and unto Aholibah; the lewd women,
the ten tribes of Israel, and the two tribes of Judah and Benjamin, which apostatized from God, and committed idolatry; with these the Sabeans before mentioned, and other nations, joined in idolatrous worship.

Ezekiel 23:44 In-Context

42 "I heard the noise from a carefree crowd. A large number of people came from the desert, and they put bracelets on the women's wrists and beautiful crowns on their heads.
43 Then I said, 'She is worn out from her acts of adultery.' Yet, men continued to have sex with her.
44 Men slept with her. They slept with those sinful women, Oholah and Oholibah just as they slept with a prostitute.
45 Righteous people will punish these women for adultery and for murder, because these women have committed adultery and their hands are covered with blood.
46 "This is what the Almighty LORD says: Bring together a mob [against the people of Samaria and Jerusalem]. Hand them over to terror and looting.
