The whore of Revelation 2

There is only one time in Revelation where a whore is mentioned and her identity is plainly given without symbols:

You have some people there who hold to the teaching of Balaam, who instructed Balak to put a stumbling block before the Israelites: to eat food sacrificed to idols and to play the harlot.--Revelation 2:14
Another verse a few verses later calls the whore "my servants"
Yet I hold this against you, that you tolerate the woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, who teaches and misleads my servants to play the harlot and to eat food sacrificed to idols.--Revelation 2:20
