  Aholah
     she has her own tent, a name used by Ezekiel (23:4, 5, 36, 44)
     as a symbol of the idolatry of the kingdom of Israel. This

     the abominations and idolatries of the Egyptians and Assyrians.
     Because of her crimes, she was carried away captive, and ceased


     to be a kingdom. (Comp. Ps. 78:67-69; 1 Kings 12:25-33; 2 Chr.
     11:13-16.)
