Hosea

Time – 755 – 710 B.C.
The book of Hosea describes the patient long-suffering of God towards the
rebellious and unfaithful northern kingdom of Israel. However, it is made clear to the Israelites that punishment will engulf anyone who remains wilfully rebellious. A key theme is Hosea’s marriage to the unfaithful Gomer, which is symbolic of the relationship between God and Israel.
