Ezekiel 23:15-16

Context
23:15 wearing belts on their waists and flowing turbans on their heads, all of them looking like officers, the image of Babylonians 1  whose native land is Chaldea. 23:16 When she saw them, 2  she lusted after them and sent messengers to them in Chaldea. 3 

1 tn Heb “the sons of Babel.”

2 tn Heb “at the appearance of her eyes.”

3 sn The Chaldeans were prominent tribal groups of Babylonia. The imagery is reminiscent of events in the reigns of Hezekiah (2 Kgs 20:12-15) and Jehoiakim (2 Kgs 23:34-24:1).
