"Go and marry a prostitute." These are the first words God spoke to
his prophet Hosea. Why would he ask this of one of his special
spokesmen? Because he wanted to teach Hosea, the nation of Israel,
and all of us today a lesson we will not forget, a lesson that is
painful yet joyous. Hosea's sombre portrait of the human condition
is our lesson in pain. All of us have played the harlot by
forsaking God and his ways. The picture is not pretty but it's
true. Yet Hosea's clear illustration of God's love for us brings
joy. While we are yet sinners, God comes to us and loves us. Derek
Kidner imaginatively takes us through the unfolding story of Hosea
and his wife Gomer, explaining the basic message, pointing out the
subtleties, and encouraging readers to live lives worthy of the God
who loves the loveless.
