Summary: The Book of Hosea is not a cool, detached, sophisticated study of the social and religious conditions in Israel. It is the sobbing of a broken heart. Hosea's wife had deserted him for another, but still he loved her. Under such circumstances his heart was tortured beyond description. Out of this experience he grasped with rare insight the pain in the heart of God when his people forsake and forget him. - Introduction.
