Mark completed the study of Hosea in the Study of the Minor Prophets series with a focus of
God going to trial with the Israelites.
Trials in Israel at the time needed two to three witnesses for a capital offense – ones punishable
by death. In Hosea, God takes Israel to court because Israel has broken covenant with God and
committed adultery.
Points for home:
Time out. God wants best for you.
God isn’t blind to what we do.
Don’t miss the interweaving of law and grace.
