'ohŏlâ, 'ohlŏlı̂bâ. Oholah, Oholibah. Ezekiel uses these nouns as symbolic names for
Samaria and Jerusalem: Oholah ("her tent") and Oholibah ("my tent is in her," Ezk 23:4, etc.). The names Oholiab (tent of the father, Ex 31:6) and Oholibamah (tent of the high place, Gen 36:2, 41) are from this noun.
:cloud9: Good find! I can see something in that.....Judah means praise, He inhabits the praises of His people, praise becomes as His tent.
