Hosea 1:7
_ _ Judah is only incidentally mentioned to form a contrast to Israel.
_ _ by the Lord their God — more emphatic than “by Myself”; by that Jehovah (Me) whom they worship as their God, whereas ye despise Him.
_ _ not ... by bow — on which ye Israelites rely (Hosea 1:5, “the bow of Israel”); Jeroboam II was famous as a warrior (2 Kings 14:25). Yet it was not by their warlike power Jehovah would save Judah (1 Samuel 17:47; Psalms 20:7). The deliverance of Jerusalem from Sennacherib (2 Kings 19:35), and the restoration from Babylon, are herein predicted. |
Hosea 1:7
Save them — I will preserve them, that violence do not swallow them up, nor length of captivity wear them out; and this preserved remnant shall return and be planted in their own land, and there kept in safety. By the Lord — Particularly in that extraordinary deliverance of Hezekiah and Jerusalem, from Sennacherib. |

(k) For after their captivity he restored them miraculously by the means of Cyrus; (Ezra 1:1). |
