Hosea 4:14
_ _ I will not punish ... daughters — I will visit with the heaviest punishments “not” the unchaste “daughters and spouses,” but the fathers and husbands; for it is these who “themselves” have set the bad example, so that as compared with the punishment of the latter, that of the former shall seem as nothing [Munster].
_ _ separated with whores — withdrawn from the assembly of worshippers to some receptacle of impurity for carnal connection with whores.
_ _ sacrifice with harlots — They commit lewdness with women who devote their persons to be violated in honor of Astarte. (So the Hebrew for “harlots” means, as distinguished from “whores”). Compare Numbers 25:1-3; and the prohibition, Deuteronomy 23:18.
_ _ not understand — (Isaiah 44:18; Isaiah 45:20).
_ _ shall fall — shall be cast down. |
Hosea 4:14
Nor your spouses — I will give them up to their own hearts. For themselves — The husband and fathers are examples to their wives and daughters. Therefore the people — The sottish ignorant people, that know not God. Shall fall — Be utterly ruined. |
Hosea 4:14
I will not (q) punish your daughters when they commit whoredom, nor your spouses when they commit adultery: for themselves are separated with whores, and they sacrifice with harlots: therefore the people [that] doth not understand shall fall.

1 Kings 14:23-24 For they also built them high places, and images, and groves, on every high hill, and under every green tree. ... And there were also sodomites in the land: [and] they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
