Contextual Overview
11 And though her sister Oholibah saw, Yet became she more corrupt in her lust tan the other,- And her unchaste doings exceeded the unchaste doings of her sister. 12 After the sons of Assyria:, she lusted Governors and deputies so warlike. Clothed in splendid array, Horsemen, riding on horses, Attractive young men, all of them. 13 So I saw that she defiled herself, - One way, had they both. 14 Yet did she add, unto her unchaste doings, when she saw men portrayed upon the wall, likenesses of Chaldeans, Portrayed with vermilion: 15 Girded with waistcloths upon their loins With overhanging high turbans upon their heads, In appearance, knights all of theme-The likeness of the sons of Babylon of Chaldea, the land of their birth. 16 Then lusted she after them, as soon as her eyes beheld them, - And she sent messengers unto them to Chaldea. 17 Then came in unto her the sons of Babylon into the bed of endearments, and defiled her with their unchaste doings,- And she defiled herself with them, And then was her soul torn from them. 18 Thus disclosed she her unchaste desires, And disclosed her shame,- So my soul was torn from her, Just as my soul had been torn from her sister. 19 Yea she multiplied her unchaste desires,-calling to mind the days of her youth, when she was unchaste in the land of Egypt; - 20 So she lusted after their courtiers,- Whose flesh was the flesh of asses, and Whose issue was the issue of horses.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And as soon as she saw them with her eyes, she doted upon them,.... As lustful women, on the sight of the pictures of men, fall in love with them, and are mad after them; such a vehement desire after the idols of the Chaldeans prevailed, upon seeing their images:
and sent messengers unto them in Chaldea; to make alliances with the Chaldeans, and to have their idols, and worship them.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The sending of “messengers” refers to the act of Ahaz 2 Kings 16:7.
