520 |a Ezekiel 23 is unusual in the Hebrew Bible for providing detailed descriptions of the clothing and adornment practices of Assyrians and Babylonians. The terminology the writer used reveals the characteristics of these people groups, real or imagined, which he wished to emphasize. When examined in their socio-historic context, it is clear the author selected specific terms to portray the Mesopotamians as completely “other” from the Judeans in exile with regard to ethnic, class, religious, and even professional identities. The purpose of such rhetoric was to encourage the Judeans in Babylonia to retain their own distinct identity and not integrate with the foreigners surrounding them.
