ホセア書 6:10-11 JCB

The Pulpit Commentary - Hosea 6:11

Also, O Judah, he hath set an harvest for thee. The subject of shath is the indeterminate third person, like the French on, and our "they" or "one." The third person singular masculine, the third person plural, the second person singular masculine, and the passive voice are all used in this way. So here it is: "One hath appointed (set) a harvest for thee," or "a harvest is appointed for thee." The harvest is either recompense or retribution, and thus it is either good or evil, for as a... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Hosea 6:11

Naturalness of retribution. "Also, O Judah, he hath set an harvest for thee." Dr. Henderson ends the chapter with this clause and begins the next chapter with the latter clause of this verse. Some regard the harvest here as used in a good sense, as pointing to the ingathering of the people of God. But such a view is scarcely admissible. It evidently refers to punishment, and some suppose to that terrible punishment that fell on Judah as recorded in 2 Chronicles 26:6-9 . Divine punishment... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Hosea 6:10

I have seen a horrible thing - Literally, “what would make one shudder.” God had seen it; therefore man could not deny it. In the sight of God, and amid the sense of His presence, all excuses fail.In the house of Israel - o: “For what more horrible, more amazing than that this happened, not in any ordinary nation but “in the house of Israel,” in the people of God, in the portion of the Lord, as Moses said, “the Lord’s portion is His people, Jacob is the lot of His inheritance?” In another... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Hosea 6:11

Also, O Judah, He hath set a harvest for thee, when I returned - (rather, when I return) the captivity of My people.The “harvest” may be either for good or for bad. If the harvest is spoken of, as bestowed upon the people, then, as being of chief moment for preserving the life of the body, it is a symbol of all manner of good, temporal or spiritual, bestowed by God. If the people is spoken of, as themselves being the harvest which is ripe and ready to be cut down, then it is a symbol of their... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Hosea 6:10-11

Hosea 6:10-11. I have seen a horrible thing Such an apostacy from God as cannot be mentioned without horror. There is the whoredom of Ephraim Or rather, there, namely, in the house of Israel, BY the whoredom of Ephraim, that is, by the idolatry of Jeroboam, who was of that tribe, and first began the worship of the golden calves; Israel is defiled The whole ten tribes are corrupted: for they soon all followed the example of Jeroboam in this idolatrous worship. Also, O Judah, he ... read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Hosea 6:7-11

Treachery, robbery and murder (6:7-7:7)Priests and common citizens alike are guilty of treachery, robbery and murder. Hosea again names the places where they have practised these evils. He announces that the people, along with all their religious ceremonies and sacrifices, are repulsive to God (7-10). God wants to give blessings to his people, but they prevent such blessings because they refuse to repent. They prefer to continue with their cheating, stealing and violence (11-7:2).The death of... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Hosea 6:10

"In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing: there whoredom is found in Ephraim, Israel is defiled.""House of Israel" here does not seem to be used in the sense of the covenant people of God, but of their "house" of pagan worship at Bethel. So Smith and others have understood it. As the place of residence for the northern kings, and as the location of the principal pagan establishment in northern Israel, one of the golden calves being set up there (1 Kings 12:29), "Bethel may well be... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Hosea 6:11

"Alas, O Judah, there is a harvest appointed for thee, when I bring back the captivity of my people.""Alas, O Judah ..." Thus we have another reference to Judah; and the knee-jerk response of many commentators is the allegation that, "This is an evident gloss, suggested to the later writer by Judah's sins which so resembled those here charged to Israel."[22] "A Judean editor applies the prophecy to his own time and situation."[23] "This is the contribution of a Judean editor who glosses the... read more
