Bible Question: What does it mean to sow the wind and to reap the whirlwind? what does one plant in the wind, what does one gather in the whirlwind? |
Bible Answer: Scripture ... Hosea 8:7 - context (vv 1-14) ... breaddwon, God's day to you. It may refer to that Israel had sinned for a long time and now the punishment will come with more intesity and a shorter time. Winds blow most of the time ... the whirlwind doesn't last as long. Searcher |
