Ezekiel 23 · Grade 3
Oholah and Oholibah
Read the Story
God told Ezekiel a story about two sisters. Their names were Oholah and Oholibah. The first was Samaria. The second was Jerusalem.
Both sisters were God's. But they turned away from him. They put their trust in strong lands. They bowed to the idols of those lands.
Samaria fell first. Jerusalem saw it, but she did not learn. God said she had forgotten him. She cast him behind her back.
Memory Verse
