Ezekiel 23:2 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 23:2 In-Context

1 This message came to me from the LORD :

2 “Son of man, once there were two sisters who were daughters of the same mother.

3 They became prostitutes in Egypt. Even as young girls, they allowed men to fondle their breasts.

4 The older girl was named Oholah, and her sister was Oholibah. I married them, and they bore me sons and daughters. I am speaking of Samaria and Jerusalem, for Oholah is Samaria and Oholibah is Jerusalem.

5 “Then Oholah lusted after other lovers instead of me, and she gave her love to the Assyrian officers.
