Verse 11

Yahweh instructed His prophet that though both the Northern and Southern Kingdoms had committed spiritual harlotry, Judah’s sin was worse than Israel’s. Here the Lord personified Judah as "Treachery" as he again personified Israel as "Apostasy" (cf. Jeremiah 3:6; Jeremiah 3:12). Israel had been unfaithful, but Judah had been unfaithful and had presumed on the Lord’s mercy. Israel had not had the benefit of an example of unfaithfulness to warn her, but Judah did (cf. Ezekiel 23).
