I respect Hosea, who obeyed His Lord so faithfully.

I don’t know how he did it really. Talk about God’s grace. Same thing in Ezekiel 24:15-27. Whew.

To: Hebrews 11:6
...They will come trembling to the LORD and to his blessings in the last days."

A huge amount of time will (and did) pass between Hosea's prophecy and the present time. Notice that he refers to them as 'The Israelites', not the 'Jews' or 'The Kingdom of Israel', meaning the Northern Kingdom. He's talking about ALL the descendants of Jacob/Israel. The northern kingdom was taken into captivity by the Assyrian Empire and when it fell, all traces of the Israelites who lived there basically disappeared from history. Hosea mentions King David in his prophecy, whose throne is still in existence, else they could not return to him................
