  1  The whoredoms of Aholah and Aholibah.
23  Aholibah is to be plagued by her lovers.
36  The prophet reproves the adulteries of them both;
45  and shews their judgments.

   * :1


VERSE 2

   * :8,19,21; 16:22 Ho 2:15


VERSE 4 
 - the names.
  The kingdom of Israel, of which Samaria was the capital,
  containing ten tribes, and occupying a larger extent of
  country than that of Judah, is therefore called "her elder
  sister;" and Aholah, the name given to her, implies that the
  whole religious establishment in Israel was a human
  invention, a temple and service of their own, and not of
  God's appointment.  Aholibah, the name given to Judah,
  implies that the worship established there was from God, and
  that His temple was truly at Jerusalem.

- Aholibah.  that is, My tabernacle in her.
   * 1Ki 8:29 Ps 76:2; 132:13,14

  The Israelites, in addition to their former gross idolatries,
  received the impure idolatrous worship of the Assyrians, who
  became their neighbors by the conquest of Syria.

   * 1Ki 14:9,16; 15:26,30; 16:31,32; 21:26 2Ki 17:7-18

  That is, "princes in appearance;" which seem to have been the
  deified men worshipped by the Chaldeans.  The inhabitants of
  Judah, like the Israelites, connected themselves with the
  Assyrians, and were enamoured with their idols; and then with
  the Chaldeans, and followed their idols; still retaining
  their attachment to the Egyptians and their idolatrous rites.


VERSE 16

  her eyes.

   * So 8:6 Zep 1:18
- they shall take away.
  This refers to the severe vengeance which enraged husbands
  took on their faithless wives:  and implies that God would
  employ the Chaldeans to destroy the princes and priests of
  Judah, for violating their covenants and treaties.  Such
  punishments were anciently common; and such is the present
  practice in one of the South Sea Islands.

  These severe judgments shall effectually deter you from
  idolatry, and make you abhor the least approaches to it.
  This often repeated prediction has received a most wonderful
  accomplishment.  For neither the authority, frowns, examples,
  or favor of their conquerors or powerful neighbors, nor
  their own fears, hopes, interests, or predilection for the
  sensual worship of idols, could prevail with them to run into
  gross idolatry, either during the captivity, or ever
  afterwards, to the present day, a period of 2,414 years.
