Berean Standard Bible

“I will heal their apostasy; I will freely love them, for My anger has turned away from them.”

Hosea 14:4

Save as image

Study note

Hosea's book ends with a call for Israel to return to the LORD after a long history of unfaithfulness. God had shown Hosea's own marriage to an unfaithful wife as an image of the covenant broken and yet pursued.
