aholah - Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary :

  Aholah
  she has her own tent, a name used by Ezekiel (23:4, 5, 36, 44)
  as a symbol of the idolatry of the kingdom of Israel. This
  kingdom is described as a lewdwoman, an adulteress, given up to
  the abominations and idolatries of the Egyptians and Assyrians.
  Because of her crimes, she was carried away captive, and ceased
  to be a kingdom. (Comp. Ps. 78:67-69; 1 Kings 12:25-33; 2 Chr.
  11:13-16.)
