HOSEA 13: 6-8

When I fed them, they were satisfied; when they were satisfied, they became proud; then they forgot me. So I will come upon them like a lion, like a leopard I will lurk by the path. Like a bear robbed of her cubs, I will attack them and rip them open. Like a lion I will devour them; a wild animal will tear them apart.

This is based in the *Feminine role* (Like a bear robbed of her cubs) (FULLER MEANING)

Matthew did not impose a new meaning on Hosea’s prophecy, a meaning that the Spirit of God did not have there originally.

Matthew revealed the fuller meaning of Hosea 11:1.

In 1 Corinthians 9:9-10, Paul expands on Deuteronomy 25:4, “For it is written in the Law of Moses,’You shall not muzzle the ox while he is threshing.’ Is it about oxen that God is concerned?

This was written for us, because when the plowman plows and the thresher threshes, they ought to do so in the hope of sharing in the harvest.”

In this passage Paul states categorically that the Mosaic Law regarding the welfare of oxen has an extended meaning.

When Moses wrote Deuteronomy 25:4 he was probably unaware that a principle for Christian service was “built into” this law, but there’s no question that God intended this fuller meaning

"Matthew revealed the fuller meaning of Hosea 11:1."

There is no way of making it fuller! G-d is mearly longing for his people that he Brought out of Egypt. Why? Because they are sinning...he want them to stop and return to HIm.
