Reading for July 18th
Read Hosea 5.1-6.3 God sentences Israel.
An extended judgment speech describing God's punishment of Israel follows the indictment of Ch. 4.
5.1-7 God reviews Israel's sins.
In verse 1 Hosea does not explain the crimes of Mizpah, a town in southern Israel,
or of Tabor, a mountain in the Jezreel Valley in northern Israel.
In verse 7 the new moon marked the beginning of the month and of religious
observances in Israel (Isa 1.13, Am 8.5).
