The book of Hosea is divided into two unequal sections: The first (Chapters 1–3) uses the relationship between Hosea and Gomer, to set the stage
for the second (Chapters 4–14), which deals with God’s complaint against Israel and the coming judgment. In the first, we have the faithful prophet and the faithless bride; in the second, we see the faithful God and faithless Israel.
The theme of the book is the loyal love of God for idolatrous Israel, and the power of His redemption and forgiveness to transform her into His beloved bride.

Secure In Christ #5
Interpreting the Word of God demands several principles: Unity and consistency of scripture (2Ti 3:16, Jam 2:10-11). What we have in written Word is fulfilled in Christ; He was consistent (Mat 5:17). Context is paramount. Simplicity in interpretation is the most accurate. Keeping interpretation Christ-centered (Joh 1:1-34, Luk 24:27, Luk 24:45).
Scripture References: Luke 24:27, John 1:1-34, Matthew 5:17, James 2:10-11, Luke 24:45
