Ezekiel 23:4-6
Evangelical Heritage Version
Ezekiel 23:4-6
Evangelical Heritage Version
4 The older sister was named Oholah, and her sister was named Oholibah.[a] They became mine and gave birth to sons and daughters. (As for their names, Samaria is Oholah and Jerusalem is Oholibah.)
5 Oholah acted like a prostitute instead of being faithful to me. She lusted after her lovers, the Assyrians—bodyguards 6 clothed in purple, governors and commanders, all of them desirable young men, cavalrymen riding horses.[b]
Footnotes
- Ezekiel 23:4 Oholah means her tent. Samaria had its own sanctuary, not the Lord’s. Oholibah means my tent is in her. Jerusalem had the true sanctuary of the Lord, but they did not honor it.
