When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for they commit falsehood; and the thief cometh in, and the troop of robbers spoileth without.
Cada vez que traté de sanar a Israel, quedaron expuestos los males de Efraín y salieron a la luz las corrupciones de Samaria. Practican el engaño, los ladrones entran a las casas, y las bandas saquean en las calles.
Cuando Dios intentaba restaurar a su pueblo, sus pecados y corrupciones quedaban al descubierto.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Hosea was a prophet to the northern kingdom of Israel in the 8th century BC, during a time of political instability, idolatry, and moral corruption under kings like Jeroboam II. In this verse, God expresses His desire to heal and restore the nation, but the sins of Ephraim (a term for Israel) and Samaria (its capital) are exposed, highlighting widespread deceit, theft, and robbery as evidence of their unfaithfulness. This reflects the broader prophetic warnings in Hosea's book about divine judgment if the people did not repent.
