Whoredom

The word whoredom is from one of 2 Hebrew words, zanuwn ZayinNunVavNun^[2] from the word zanah ZayinNunHey^[3] often translated whore or it is from the word taznuwth TavZayinNunVavTav used by Ezekiel^[4] but from the same word zanah. It is akin to Adultery and Fornication.

Exodus 34:15 "Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring^[3] after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and thou eat of his sacrifice;"

Their sacrifices are the dainties of rulers and the wages of unrighteousness that we should not have an appetite for because they degenerate the people and turn the masses into perfect savages ushering in tribute of tyrants who exercise authority. Because you are biting one anther you are devoured.

This national adultery warning is repeated in Exodus 34:16 "And thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a whoring^[3] after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring^[3] after their gods."
