O death, I will be thy death; O hell, I will be thy bite

Vale of Tears by Gustave Doré (1883)

[quotesfromscripture]

“But I have been the LORD your God Ever since you came out of Egypt.  You shall acknowledge no God but me,  No Savior except me.  I cared for you in the wilderness,  In the land of burning heat. 

When I fed them, they were satisfied;  When they were satisfied, they became proud;  Then they forgot me. 

So I will be like a lion to them,  Like a leopard I will lurk by the path.  Like a bear robbed of her cubs,  I will attack them and rip them open;  Like a lion I will devour them . . .” 

- Hosea 13:4-8a NIV (2011)

[quotesfromscripture]

When Ephraim spoke, people trembled;  he was exalted  in Israel.  But he became guilty of Baal worship  and died. 

- Hosea 13:1 NIV (2011)

[quotesfromscripture]

I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death. Where, O death, are your plagues? Where, O grave, is your destruction?

Hosea 13:14a NIV

[s-o-a-p-ing]

HOSEA S.O.A.P. ~ CHAPTER 13

Friday, 6/5/26:

SCRIPTURE:

Will I ransom them from the power of the grave Will I redeem them from death’s hold? Death, where are your diseases? Grave, where is your destruction? Compassion is hidden from my eyes. ~ Hosea 13:14

OBSERVATION:

This sent me searching for where I’d heard this before, since I haven’t read much in Hosea before these past two weeks…

Found it in 1 Corinthians, where Paul repeats the Hosea’s questions and replies with: "But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ."

750 to 800 years to have the “gloom and doom” of Hosea turned into to glory and Good News of Paul (I had to look that up, too…)

A answer well worth the wait!

Thanks be to God indeed!

APPLICATION:

Give thanks in and for all things…

…but especially for our victory through the Lord Jesus!

PRAYER:

Father - Thanks be to You and You alone for the victory over my sin and death through Your Son and my Lord Jesus! May I be forgiven for those sins I committed both inadvertently and willfully through my disobedience and seek the Holy Spirit’s power and presence to keep me from falling and failing. In Jesus’s Name and for Your glory, honor and praise for Your grace and mercy.

=============

Looks like I got ahead of myself yesterday 😣… Hosea is 14 Chapters, not 13, so Monday when we finish, what say you to continuing on into Joel? I am not that familiar with this book (either), so…

Ephraim's Glory Vanishes

1 When Ephrayim spoke there was trembling; he was exalted in Yisroel; but when he became guilty in Ba’al, he died.

2 And now they sin more and more, and have made for themselves massekhah (idol) of their kesef, and atzabim according to their faculty of binah (understanding), all of it the work of the craftsmen; they say of them, Let adam that sacrifice kiss calf-idols.

3 Therefore they shall be like the anan boker (morning cloud) and as the early dew that disappears, like the motz (chaff) that is driven with the whirlwind out of the threshing floor, and as the smoke out of the window.

4 Yet I am Hashem Eloheicha from Eretz Mitzrayim, and thou shalt know no Elohim but Me; for there is no Moshia besides Me.

5 I did know thee in the midbar, in the eretz taluvot (land of burning heat).

6 According to their pasture (T.N. i.e., as I fed them), so were they filled; they were filled, and their lev became proud; therefore have they forgotten Me.

7 Therefore I will be unto them as a lion; as a leopard by the derech will I lie in wait;

8 I will meet them as a dov (bear) that is bereaved of her cubs, and will rip open the covering of their lev, and there will I devour them like a lion; as the wild beast of the sadeh would tear them.

9 O Yisroel, thou art destroyed; because thou art against Me, thine Ezer (Help).

10 Where now is thy melech that he may save thee? Where in all thy cities are thy shofetim of whom thou saidst, Give me a melech and sarim?

11 I gave thee a melech in Mine anger, and took him away in My wrath [Isa 53:10].

12 The avon (iniquity) of Ephrayim is bound up; his chattat is lurking.

13 The chevlei yoledah (birth pangs of a woman in childbirth) shall come upon him; he is a ben lo chacham; for when it is time he does not come to the opening of the womb.

14 Should I ransom them from the power of Sheol? Should I redeem them from mavet? O Mavet, where are the dever (pestilence, plague) of thee? O Sheol, where is thy destruction? Nocham (sorrow, compassion, pity) shall be hidden from Mine eyes.

15 Even though he thrives among his achim, an east wind shall come, the Ruach Hashem shall come up from the midbar (desert), and his makor (spring, fountain) shall become dry, and his well shall be dried up; it shall plunder the otzar of every keli chemdah (precious vessel).

16 (14:1) Shomron shall bear guilt; for she hath rebelled against her Elohim; they shall fall by the cherev; their olalim shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped open. — Hosea 13 | Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB) The Orthodox Jewish Bible fourth edition, OJB.

Hosea 13:14-16

Hos 13:14 Should I rescue them from the power of Sheol? Should I redeem them from Death? O Death, where are your plagues? O Sheol, where is your sting? My eyes see no reason for compassion. Hos 13:15 Though he may thrive among his brothers now, the east wind, the wind of Yahveh, will come, rising from the desert, and his fountain will dry up; his spring will…
