Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Hosea 1:8

8. weaned —said to complete the symbolical picture, not having any special signification as to Israel [HENDERSON]. Israel was bereft of all the privileges which were as needful to them as milk is to infants (compare Psalms 131:2 ; 1 Peter 2:2 ) [VATABLUS]. Israel was not suddenly, but gradually cast off; God bore with them with long-suffering, until they were incurable [CALVIN]. But as it is not God, but Gomer who weans Lo-ruhamah, the weaning may imply the lust of Gomer, who was hardly weaned when she is again pregnant [MANGER]. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-9" class="com-number"
