And they have not cried unto me with their heart, when they howled upon their beds: they assemble themselves for corn and wine, and they rebel against me.
No me claman de verdad desde su corazón, solo gritan en sus camas por la noche. Se reúnen únicamente cuando quieren comida y bebida, pero luego se rebelan contra mí.
El pueblo busca a Dios solo en sus necesidades físicas, pero no le entrega su corazón de manera genuina.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Hosea was a prophet to the Northern Kingdom of Israel in the 8th century BC, during a time of political instability and widespread idolatry, as the nation turned away from God's covenant and sought security in alliances with foreign powers. In this verse, God criticizes the people for insincere prayers, where their emotional outbursts on their beds were not genuine cries of repentance but self-serving pleas for material goods like grain and wine, revealing their ongoing rebellion. This reflects the broader theme in Hosea's book, which uses his own troubled marriage as a metaphor for God's faithful love toward unfaithful Israel.
