Ezekiel23:10
10 These discovered her nakedness : they took her sons and her daughters, and slew her with the sword : and she became famous among women; for they had executed judgment upon her.
Used her as lewd Women deserve, stript her naked, and exposed her to shame, as ver. 26. God her Husband had clothed her, and covered her nakedness, but she lightly esteemed her God, doted on Idols, and Idolaters strip her.
Made them Captives, and carried them away as Slaves to serve the Lusts of barbarous Conquerors, so both Sexes were used.
As a person slain with the Sword ceaseth to be, so this Kingdom of Israel under Hoshea was by the Sword of Salmanezer utterly destroyed.
Her lewdness made her infamous, and God's judgments for it made her more known in the world.
The Assyrians a proud, bitter, and violent Enemy.
Had executed their own malicious revenges, but God's just displeasure upon her.
