John Calvin Commentary Ezekiel 16:34

"And thou art different from [other] women in thy whoredoms, in that none followeth thee to play the harlot; and whereas thou givest hire, and no hire is given unto thee, therefore thou art different." — Ezekiel 16:34 (ASV)

But the Prophet only confirms his former teaching, that the Jews were seized with such lust, and in such an unaccustomed manner, that they could only satisfy their desires with severe loss; but this comparison only magnifies their crime, since they were worse than any harlots; for although they shamefully sell themselves, yet the hope of gain is a kind of pretext and excuse, and a starving woman may be led into great excess; but far fouler and less excusable is the conduct of a woman who purchases her lovers.
