Ezekiel 23 - two lustful whores to be despised

 Ezekiel 23 compares Jerusalem and Samaria to two sisters and whores.

1-4 God’s Message came to me: “Son of man, there were two women, daughters of the same mother. They became whores in Egypt, whores from a young age. Their breasts were fondled, their young bosoms caressed. The older sister was named Oholah, the younger was Oholibah. They were my daughters, and they gave birth to sons and daughters. “Oholah is Samaria and Oholibah is Jerusalem.

It describes the mind of a lustful whore, beginning with Samaria:

5-8 “Oholah started whoring while she was still mine. She lusted after Assyrians as lovers: military men smartly uniformed in blue, ambassadors and governors, good-looking young men mounted on fine horses. Her lust was unrestrained. She was a whore to the Assyrian elite. She compounded her filth with the idols of those to whom she gave herself in lust. She never slowed down. The whoring she began while young in Egypt she continued, sleeping with men who played with her breasts and spent their lust on her.
9-10 “So I left her to her Assyrian lovers, for whom she was so obsessed with lust. They ripped off her clothes, took away her children, and then, the final indignity, killed her. Among women her name became Shame — history’s judgment on her.

Then, it describes the mind of her sister, Jerusalem as a more lustful whore.
The Lord express his emotion as an angry husband that will deal with his lustful wife.

Sex is linked to idolatry. It is very easy to have some disgusting to someone who puts sex first in life. The Lord is showing that is disgusting to place any other god (sex, fame, money) above the Lord. Our joy must come from the Lord.
