Hosea 3 MTB1537 Bible

Select Translation

1 Then said the LORD to me: Go yet thy way and vow |wow| an advoutrous woman, whom thy neighbour loveth, as the LORD doth the children of Israell: how be it they have respect to strange gods, and love the wine cans.
2 So I gat her for fifteen silverlings, and for an homer and an half of barley,
3 and said unto her: Thou shalt bide with me a long season, but see that thou playest not the harlot, and look thou meddle with none other man, and then will I keep my self for thee.
4 Thus the children of Israel shall sit a great while without king and prince, without offering and alter, without priest and revelation.
5 But afterward shall the children of Israel convert, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king: and in the latter days they shall worship the LORD, and his loving-kindness.

“But if the prophetโ€™s words are true when he says, โ€œThe children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, without prince; and there shall be no victim, nor altar, nor priesthood,โ€ and if, certainly, since the overthrow of the temple, victims are neither offered, nor any...”

What the Early Church wrote about Hosea 3 (1)

  • “For a prophet also says elsewhere, โ€œThe sons of Israel will sit for many days without a king, without a prince, without a prophet, without a victim, without a sacrifice, without a priest.โ€ On our Lordโ€™s day, however, the Lord always rains manna from the sky.”
