Yahweh said to me, "Go again, love a woman loved by another, and an adulteress, even as Yahweh loves the children of Israel, though they turn to other gods, and love cakes of raisins."
Now, turning ahead to chapter 6, and this is next week's lesson so we're gonna just take a look here. The declaration of Israel in the last days: "Come, and let us return unto the Lord: for He has torn, and He will heal us; He has smitten, but He will bind us up. After two days will He revive us: in the third day He will raise us up, and we shall live in His sight" ( Hosea 6:1-2 ).
