Jeremiah 3:9
And it came to pass through the lightness of her whoredom, that she defiled the land, and committed adultery with stones and with stocks. (Jeremiah 3:9)
Lightness.
Heb. qol, from the root qalal, “to be slight,” “to be swift,” “to be trifling.” This seems to be the only instance where the word qol has this meaning. The LXX supports this reading by its rendering eis outhen, literally, “unto nothing.”
According to this reading Judah attached no importance to her fornication.
Defiled.
 See ch. 2:7.
Stones and with stocks.
 Their idols (see ch. 2:27).
