Oholah

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia by James Orr (ed.) (1915)

ṓ-hō´la (אהלה, ’ohŏlāh; the King James Version Aholah): The exact meaning is a matter of dispute. As written, it seems to mean a tent-woman, or the woman living in a tent. With a mappik in the last consonant it could mean “her tent.” The term is used symbolically by Ezekiel to designate Samaria or the kingdom of Israel (Eze 23:4, Eze 23:5, Eze 23:36, Eze 23:44). See OHOLIBAH.
