Hosea 11:12
_ _ Maurer joins this verse with the twelfth chapter. But as this verse praises Judah, whereas Hosea 12:2 censures him, it must belong rather to the eleventh chapter and a new prophecy begins at the twelfth chapter. To avoid this, Maurer translates this verse as a censure, “Judah wanders with God,” that is, though having the true God, he wanders after false gods.
_ _ ruleth with God — to serve God is to reign. Ephraim wished to rule without God (compare 1 Corinthians 4:8); nay, even, in order to rule, cast off God’s worship [Rivetus]. In Judah was the legitimate succession of kings and priests.
_ _ with the saints — the holy priests and Levites [Rivetus]. With the fathers and prophets who handed down the pure worship of God. Israel’s apostasy is the more culpable, as he had before him the good example of Judah, which he set at naught. The parallelism (“with GOD”) favors Margin, “With THE MOST HOLY ONE.” |
Hosea 11:12
Ephraim — Most of the people of Israel. With lies — Play the hypocrite with me still. Judah — The two tribes. Yet ruleth — While idolaters are slaves to the devil, the true worshippers of God, like princes, rule with God. Faithful — Retains purity, at least truth of worship, and comparatively is faithful. Judah adheres to God's holy prophets, priests, and other saints of God. |
Hosea 11:12
Ephraim compasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Judah yet ruleth with (l) God, and is faithful with the saints.
(l) Governs their state according to God's word, and does not degenerate. |
