HA Bible Study: Hosea 3:1-3

by Goldy — Sunday, 3/27/16, 6:00 am

Hosea 3:1-3
Once again the Lord spoke to me. And this time he said, “Hosea, fall in love with an unfaithful woman who has a lover. Do this to show that I love the people of Israel, even though they worship idols and enjoy the offering cakes made with fruit.”

So I paid fifteen pieces of silver and about ten bushels of grain for such a woman. Then I said, “Now you are mine! You will have to remain faithful to me, though it will be a long time before we sleep together.”

Discuss.

    Perhaps the Lord made a similar request of Heidi Nelson Cruz.
    It would be irresponsible not to speculate.

    When you pay that many sheckels, why wouldn’t you hit that?

    Ten bushels. That’s a lot.
    Why not show you love the people of Israel by asking Hosea to give ten bushels of grain to the children orphaned in your fucking wars, asshole.
    Although I gotta admit, I’m with you on the cakes made with fruit. There’s no need for those nasty things. And I don’t care how much booze you put in ’em.

    Did he buy the model in the Victoria Brides ad? She looks like the unfaithful type.

    Bernie swept all 3 states yesterday by huge margins. So where does it go from here?

    Sounds like a bible version of those “dating with singles from Europe” commercials. Mail order bride who just wants a green card. Plus ca change.

    I like fruit cake, although I don’t consider it synonymous with idol worship. Unless you count Elvis. And Hugh Jackman.

    @6 Go to YouTube, type in “Russian road rage,” and you’ll understand why there’s a shortage of eligible males in the eastern bloc countries.

    @5 Don’t know RR. Ask Hosea he’s the minor prophet. He’s even revered in Islam.
