Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Hosea 14:7

_ _ They that used to dwell under Israel’s shadow (but who shall have been forced to leave it), shall return, that is, be restored (Ezekiel 35:9). Others take “His shadow” to mean Jehovah’s (compare Psalms 17:8; Psalms 91:1; Isaiah 4:6), which Hosea 14:1, Hosea 14:2 (“return unto the Lord,” etc.) favor. But the “his” in Hosea 14:6 refers to Israel, and therefore must refer to the same here.

_ _ revive as ... corn — As the corn long buried in the earth springs up, with an abundant produce, so shall they revive from their calamities, with a great increase of offspring (compare John 12:24).

_ _ scent thereof — that is, Israel’s fame. Compare Hosea 14:6, “His smell as Lebanon”; Song of Songs 1:3 : “Thy name is as ointment poured forth.” The Septuagint favors the Margin, “memorial.”

_ _ as the wine of Lebanon — which was most celebrated for its aroma, flavor, and medicinal restorative properties.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Hosea 14:4-7.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Hosea 14:7

They that dwell — As many as unite to the church, shall dwell under these spreading trees. Return — Revive and recover strength. As the corn — Which dies ere it lives to bring forth fruit. As the vine — Which in winter seems dead, but yet life, sap, and a fructifying virtue is in it. The scent thereof — The savour of it to God and good men shall be pleasing as the scent of the delicious wines of Lebanon.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes
