EZEKIEL 23:16 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“And as soon as she saw them with her eyes, she doted upon them, and sent messengers unto them into Chaldea.”
So she sent messengers to them in Chaldea; thus the men of Babylon came to her, shared the bed of love, and defiled her with their fornication. Judah initiates diplomatic contact with Babylon, leading to intimate relationship. The bed of love represents both literal sexual activity and metaphorical political alliance.
