NETBible

Oholah was the name of the older and Oholibah¹ the name of her younger sister. They became mine, and gave birth to sons and daughters.² Oholah is Samaria and Oholibah is Jerusalem.

NET Notes

¹tn The names Oholah and Oholibah are both derived from the word meaning “tent.” The meaning of Oholah is “her tent,” while Oholibah means “my tent is in her.”

²sn In this allegory the Lord is depicted as being the husband of two wives. The OT law prohibited a man from marrying sisters (Lev 18:18), but the practice is attested in the OT (cf. Jacob). The metaphor is utilized here for illustrative purposes and does not mean that the Lord condoned such a practice or bigamy in general.
