Description
Hosea was the first Hebrew prophet to liken the relationship between God and Israel to a marriage—and a troubled one, at that. His picture of God as a husband scorned has captured the prophetic imagination ever since, yet is not without its challenges.
This engaging introduction to Hosea explores the imagery without avoiding the difficult questions. It asks what Hosea was trying to say in his own context, with a view to hearing what he might have to say to the church today. With a clear overview of the key issues, questions for reflection and discussion, and a carefully curated selection of further reading, it is designed to be the essential guide for anyone preaching, teaching or studying Hosea for the first time.
