Hosea 2:2-23:2

Scofield's Reference Notes - Hosea 2:2

She is not my wife That Israel is the wife of Jehovah Hosea 2:16-23; Hosea 2:16-23 now disowned but yet to be restored, is the clear teaching of the passages. This relationship is not to be confounded with that of the Church of Christ. (See Scofield " :-") . In the mystery of the Divine tri-unity both are true. The N.T. speaks of the Church as a virgin espoused to one husband 2 Corinthians 11:1; 2 Corinthians 11:2 which could never be said of an adulterous wife, restored in grace. Israel is,... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Hosea 2:1-23

Hosea 2:1 . Say ye unto your brethren, Ammi, that is, my people; and to your sisters, Ruhamah, that is, mercy, or oh mercy, or having obtained mercy, or mercy shall follow. Hosea 2:3 . Lest I strip her naked. The feminine name was given by the Greeks to all countries, and on that idea the text is founded. Nudity was the ancient punishment of an adulteress. Ezekiel 16:37. The scenes of drunkenness and prostitution which attended gentile feasts, were such as cannot be recited. Hosea... read more

Plead with your mother, plead ] Here of right begins the second chapter (the former verse being not so fitly separated from the former chapter), and it is nothing else but a commentary upon the first, as Pareus well noteth.

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Hosea 2:2

The faithlessness of Israel, Hosea 2:2-5. 2. Plead [“Contend”] The urgency of the appeal is indicated by its repetition. The individual Israelites who are still sensitive to the divine influence are addressed; they are urged to “exert a corrective, reforming influence on the corrupt aggregate” in order to avoid more serious consequences. The nation is called their mother Out of love to her they should work for her best interests. She is not my wife, neither am I her husband The... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Hosea 2:2-23

APPLICATION OF THE SYMBOLIC ACTS AND NAMES IN Hosea 1:3 Hosea 2:2-23 Chapters 1-3 are not arranged in what appears to be the logical order: chapter 3 attaches itself to Hosea 1:9; Hosea 3:1, continues the story of Hosea’s domestic life. He is told to go and “love a woman beloved of her friend, and an adulteress.” Marti thinks, but without good reason, that this act is entirely independent of chapter 1. The symbolism would be destroyed if the woman of Hosea 3:1, were any other than Gomer, the... read more
