They Do Not Turn To Me | Hosea 7

While God was patiently faithful to Israel, they were not faithful to Him. It is a refreshing break from the chapters surrounding it because it demonstrates God’s desire for their restoration. He earnestly sought after them, but they gave him only lies and treachery in return. “How better describe a half-fed people, a half-cultured society, a half-lived religion, a half-hearted policy, than by a half-baked scone? ” — George Adam Smith
