I was flipping thru a children's Bible & there was no mention of the Egyptians who were hung like horses. Why?

Question

Why do they leave important things like that out?


Ezekiel 23:20
"She lusted after their paramours, whose flesh is like the flesh of donkeys and whose issue is like the issue of horses.

Answer 1

because it was the g rated version of the bible

it's the triple x version that talks about people's genitals

Answer 2

So she lusted after a bunch of jack-@sses - pretty typical.
Speaking of hung, did you notice the statue of David? We chuckle everytime we see it. Do you think Michealangelo planned that from the start - seeing he hated the work so much - so he was getting his laugh in the end? Ha ha ha ha .

Answer 3

That was in the PG-13 version.

Answer 4

Because it's a "children's Bible". They also cut movies when showing them on TV. The Bible can be violent, that doesn't make it untrue.

Answer 5

Illustrative Use. In Scripture, the horse figures repeatedly in illustrative settings. The adulterous sons of faithless Jerusalem are likened to “horses seized with sexual heat.” (Jer 5:7, 8) Unfaithful Jerusalem prostituted herself to the rulers of the pagan nations, lusting after them in the style of concubines belonging to those of inordinate sexual capacity, likened to male horses. (Eze 23:20, 21) The stubborn, unrepentant attitude of an apostate people is compared with the impetuous manner of a horse dashing into battle without regard for the consequences.—Jer 8:6.

The @ss (Equus asinus) has long served man as a beast of burden, a means of transport, and a draft animal, first mention of it being made in the Scriptures in connection with Abraham. (Ge 12:16; 22:3; Jos 15:18; 2Ch 28:15; Isa 30:24) Evidently from the standpoint of the hard work of burden bearing done by the ***, Jacob likened his son Issachar to this animal. (Ge 49:14) On the other hand, reference is made to the sexual heat of asses in connection with the kingdom of Judah’s prostituting herself to the nations.—Eze 23:20.

Figurative Use. A person, a nation, or a congregation of persons dedicated to God who make alliances with the world or who turn to the worship of false gods are called in the Bible “prostitutes.” Such was the nation of Israel. Israel was seduced into having “immoral intercourse” with foreign gods and, just as an unfaithful wife would seek out other men, she looked to foreign nations for security and salvation from her enemies instead of looking to her “husbandly owner,” Jehovah God. (Isa 54:5, 6) Moreover, Jerusalem became so debased in her unfaithfulness that she went beyond the usual custom of prostitutes, as the prophet Ezekiel was inspired to say: “To all prostitutes they are accustomed to give a present, but you—you have given your presents to all those passionately loving you, and you offer a bribe to them to come in to you from all around in your acts of prostitution.” (Eze 16:33, 34) Both the ten-tribe kingdom of Israel and the two-tribe kingdom of Judah were denounced as prostitutes in this symbolic manner.—Eze 23:1-49.

You are applying literally to what is written as illustration.
What is being said is that the Egyptians were sexually like animals, with no regard to self control, animalistic, perverted sexually as humans. Not as you say "hung like horses".
This is another case of shallow study of the scriptures.
