Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Hosea 13:3

_ _ they shall be as the morning cloud ... dew — (Hosea 6:4). As their “goodness” soon vanished like the morning cloud and dew, so they shall perish like them.

_ _ the floor — the threshing-floor, generally an open area, on a height, exposed to the winds.

_ _ chimney — generally in the East an orifice in the wall, at once admitting the light, and giving egress to the smoke.

Matthew Henry's Commentary
