Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Hosea 8:5

_ _ hath cast thee off — As the ellipsis of thee is unusual, Maurer translates, “thy calf is abominable.” But the antithesis to Hosea 8:3 establishes English Version, “Israel hath cast off the thing that is good”; therefore, in just retribution, “thy calf hath cast thee off,” that is, is made by God the cause of thy being cast off (Hosea 10:15). Jeroboam, during his sojourn in Egypt, saw Apis worshipped at Memphis, and Mnevis at Heliopolis, in the form of an ox; this, and the temple cherubim, suggested the idea of the calves set up at Dan and Beth-el.

_ _ how long ... ere they attain to innocency? — How long will they be incapable of bearing innocency? [Maurer].

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Hosea 8:1-7.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Hosea 8:5

Thy calf — The chief idol set up in Samaria. Cast thee off — Hath provoked God to cast thee off. Against them — Idols, and idol worshippers. How long — How long will it be, ere they repent and reform?

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Hosea 8:5

Thy calf, O Samaria, hath cast [thee] off; mine anger is kindled against them: how long [will it be] ere they attain to (d) innocency?

(d) That is, upright judgment and a godly life.
