What the Bible says about Oholah Symbolizes Israel
(From Forerunner Commentary)
Oholah symbolizes Samaria, which in turn represents Israel—the northern ten tribes. Oholibah symbolizes Jerusalem, which in turn represents Judah—the southern two tribes.
It also becomes clear from these two chapters that the symbolism (woman=city, nation) also symbolizes women of vile character and reputation, even though at times the symbol might represent the church that the blood of Jesus Christ has made clean.
