Ezekiel 23:6 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 23:6

Which were clothed with blue
A colour the Assyrians were fond of, and clothed their soldiers in, and was taking to the eye; and is mentioned, because that men, finely clothed find beautifully arrayed, are more engaging to women, who are fond of dress: captains and rulers;
men of power and authority in military and civil affairs, either in the camp, or in the court; officers either in the army, or in the king's palace; and which was a recommendation of them: desirable young men;
for their youth, strength, beauty, and honourable employments and offices: horsemen riding upon horses:
of which there was a scarcity in Judea; wherefore such were the more desirable to them, as appearing more grand, and being more serviceable and helpful to them.

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

7 And so she prostituted herself with the most desirable men of Assyria, worshiping their idols and defiling herself.

8 For when she left Egypt, she did not leave her spirit of prostitution behind. She was still as lewd as in her youth, when the Egyptians slept with her, fondled her breasts, and used her as a prostitute.
