DIC dictionary-entry · status:draft · license:PD
The second part, containing 4-14, is a summary of Hosea's discourses, filled with denunciations, threatenings, exhortations, promises, and revelations of mercy. Quotations from Hosea are found in Matthew 2:15 ; 9:15 ; 12:7 ; Romans 9:25,26 . There are, in addition, various allusions to it in other places ( Luke 23:30 ; Revelation 6:16 , Compare Hosea 10:8 ; Romans 9:25,26 ; 1 Peter 2:10 , Compare Hosea 1:10 , etc.). As regards the style of this writer, it has been said that "each verse forms a whole for itself, like one heavy toll in a funeral knell." "Inversions (7:8; 9:11,13; 12:: 8), anacolutha (9:6; 12:8, etc.), ellipses (9:4; 13:9, etc.), paranomasias, and plays upon words, are very characteristic of ( Hosea 8:7 ; 9:15 ; 10:5 ; 11:5 ; 12:11 )."
