“You also played
The whore
With the Egyptians,
Your lustful neighbors.
You multiplied
Your prostitution
To provoke me
To anger.”
Yahweh said that Jerusalem played the whore with her lustful neighbors, the Egyptians. He felt that she multiplied her prostitute ways in order to provoke Yahweh to anger. This was an indication about the intention of the king of Judah to form a foreign alliance with Egypt against the Babylonians.
