Ezekiel 23:7 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 23:7

Thus she committed her whoredoms with them
Entered into alliance with them, and joined them in their idolatrous worship: with all them that were the chosen men of Assyria;
before described by their habit, office, and age: and with all on whom she doted;
had an insatiable desire and lust after: with all their idols she defiled herself;
worshipped all the idols the Assyrians did; and which were defiling, as they must needs be, since, as the word used signifies, they were dunghill gods.

Ezekiel 23:7 In-Context

5 And Aholah played the harlot when she was mine; and she doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians her neighbours,

6 Which were clothed with blue, captains and rulers, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding upon horses.

7 Thus she committed her whoredoms with them, with all them that were the chosen men of Assyria, and with all on whom she doted: with all their idols she defiled herself.

8 Neither left she her whoredoms brought from Egypt: for in her youth they lay with her, and they bruised the breasts of her virginity, and poured their whoredom upon her.

9 Wherefore I have delivered her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians, upon whom she doted.
