| Subject: why did Hosea marry prostitute |
|
Bible Note: Greetings Kichmon! Why would you refer to a 'hidden' message in Hosea? God Himself explains the meaning of the marriage to Gomer. Concerning the original marriage, He says: "When the LORD began to speak through Hosea, the LORD said to him, 'Go, take to yourself an adulterous wife and children of unfaithfulness, because the land is guilty of the vilest adultery in departing from the LORD.'" - Hosea 1:2. Concerning the 're-marriage', He says: "The LORD said to me, 'Go, show your love to your wife again, though she is loved by another and is an adulteress. Love her as the LORD loves the Israelites, though they turn to other gods and love the sacred raisin cakes.' 2 So I bought her for fifteen shekels of silver and about a homer and a lethek of barley. 3 Then I told her, 'You are to live with me many days; you must not be a prostitute or be intimate with any man, and I will live with you.' 4 For the Israelites will live many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred stones, without ephod or idol. 5 Afterward the Israelites will return and seek the LORD their God and David their king. They will come trembling to the LORD and to his blessings in the last days." - Hosea 3:1-5. What is 'hidden' about that? Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
