Contextual Overview
11"Now her sister Oholibah saw this, yet she was more corrupt in her lust than she, and her acts of prostitution were more [wanton] than the immoralities of her sister. 12"She lusted after the Assyrians—governors and officials, her neighbors, magnificently clothed, horsemen riding on horses, all of them desirable young men. 13"I saw that she had defiled herself; they both behaved the same way.14"But Oholibah carried her depravity further, for she saw men pictured on the wall, the images of the Chaldeans (Babylonians) sketched and portrayed in vermilion (bright red pigment), 15girded with belts on their loins, with flowing turbans on their heads, all of them looking like officers, like the Babylonian men whose native land was Chaldea. 16"When she saw [the sketches of] them, she lusted after them and sent messengers to them in Chaldea. 17"The Babylonians came to her to the bed of love and they defiled her with their evil desire; and when she had been defiled by them, she (Jerusalem) broke the relationship and pushed them away from her in disgust. 18"So she flaunted her acts of prostitution and exposed her nakedness; then I became disgusted with her [and turned away], as I had become disgusted with her sister [and turned away]. 19"Yet she multiplied her depravities, remembering the days of her youth, when she was actively immoral in the land of Egypt. 20"For she lusted after her lovers [there], whose flesh is like the flesh of donkeys and whose issue is like the issue of horses.
