The priests lead my people into sin so they can eat more of their sin offerings. They want the people to sin more and more. The people get the priests they deserve! I will punish them both for their conduct; their evil deeds will cling to them. They will eat but never be satisfied; they will have sex but will remain infertile since they are unfaithful to me, YAHWEH, and are devoted to other gods instead. Here is what robs their ability to understand: giving themselves to prostitution and to old and new wine.”

God used Hosea to powerfully communicate His anguish towards the nation of Israel due to their continued idol worship. Hosea’s life and ministry show both the heart-breaking cost of idolatry as well as the lengths to which God will go to redeem His sinful people back to Him. This book reminds us that despite our sinful idolatry, God is always faithful.
