Hosea brings back the wife who had proved unfaithful
3
📚Then the LORD said to me, “Go again, love a woman who is loved by a friend, but an adulteress✭. Show her love just like the love of the LORD for the children of Israel, who look to other gods, and love their raisin cakes✭”. 2 📚So I bought her for myself for fifteen shekels✭ of silver, and for a homer and a half✭ of barley. 3 📚And I said to her, “You shall stay with me for many days. You shall not engage in prostitution, and you shall not be for another man; so I will also be for you”.
4 📚✭For the children of Israel will remain many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an image, and without an ephod✭, and without teraphim✭. 5 📚✭Afterward the children of Israel will return, and seek the LORD their God, and David✭ their king, and will show reverence for the LORD and his goodness in the latter days✭.
