Ezequiel 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.

Ezequiel 23:6 In-Context

4 La mayor se llamaba Aholá, y la menor, Aholibá. Me uní a ellas, y me dieron hijos e hijas. (Aholá representa a Samaria, y su hermana Aholibá, a Jerusalén.)
5 Mientras Aholá me pertenecía, me fue infiel y se enamoró perdidamente de sus amantes los asirios,
6 todos ellos guerreros vestidos de púrpura, gobernadores y oficiales, jóvenes apuestos y hábiles jinetes.
7 Como una prostituta, se entregó a lo mejor de los asirios; se contaminó con todos los ídolos que pertenecían a sus amantes.
8 Jamás abandonó la prostitución que había comenzado a practicar en Egipto. Desde su juventud, fueron muchos los que se acostaron con ella; fueron muchos los que acariciaron sus pechos virginales y se apasionaron con ella.
