AOTC 21: Hosea

AOTC 21: Hosea

The prophet Hosea lived through the tumultuous final decades of the
Northern Kingdom of Israel. The Assyrian invasion culminated in the destruction
of Samaria, the end of the Northern Kingdom, and the exile of many of its
people. Hosea called the people to faith in God through warnings of judgment
and promises of hope. He exposed the people's infidelity as they turned to
other nations, to their own counsels or to other gods for their life and
prosperity. Such turning to others for what God alone could give them was,
using Hosea's most famous metaphor, 'whoring.' As God's
people, they needed to reckon with 'their' God, who had showered them
with care and grace. For Hosea, it was their refusal to 'return' to
their Lord that brought God's judgment upon them in the form of the
Assyrian invasion.






In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary, Joshua Moon sets the
prophecies of Hosea in the context of the eighth century BC. The concern of his
commentary is the importance of reading Hosea as Christian scripture, in which
we are meant to hear God's own voice as he calls his people to himself.
Moon demonstrates the continuing importance of hearing God's words through
Hosea, situating the reading of each section within larger biblical and
theological concerns.
