Commentary, Hosea 1:2-10, 8th Sunday after Pentecost (Year C), by
Dennis Bratcher at Christian
Resource Institute.
| "We have the freedom to choose, the
freedom to set certain courses of actions. But Hosea’s message here is
that we do not have the freedom to avert the consequences or choose what
they will be. And unless a change is made, those consequences will
unfold." |

conversation regarding Progressive Christianity."
|
"How important it is to remember Gomer, as well as Hosea, and their
children who become more than their beginning! In so doing we hear
G*D engaging G*D with an internal dialogue between discontent and
promise." |

"God of the
Impossible Demand," Expository Essay,
Hosea 1:2-10, Dr. William R. Long.
| "The message from Hosea in this
passage is really one of extremes. Hosea must undergo an 'extreme'
relationship in order to demonstrate the unexpected mercy of God." |
