Hosea Chapter 3 (SPARV)
Tap a verse to highlight it

1 Y DÍJOME otra vez Jehová: Ve, ama una mujer amada de su compañero, aunque adúltera, como el amor de Jehová para con los hijos de Israel; los cuales miran á dioses ajenos, y aman frascos de vino.

2 Compréla entonces para mí por quince dineros de plata, y un homer y medio de cebada;

3 Y díjele: Tú estarás por mía muchos días: no fornicarás, ni tomarás otro varón; ni tampoco yo vendré á ti.

4 Porque muchos días estarán los hijos de Israel sin rey, y sin príncipe, y sin sacrificio, y sin estatua, y sin ephod, y sin teraphim.

5 Después volverán los hijos de Israel, y buscarán á Jehová su Dios, y á David su rey; y temerán á Jehová y á su bondad en el fin de los días.

Following God's instruction, Hosea buys back a woman described as an adulteress "for fifteen pieces of silver, and for an homer of barley, and an half homer of barley" (v.1-2), symbolizing God's costly love for unfaithful Israel.
What condition does Hosea set for her in verse 3?
He tells her, "Thou shalt abide for me many days; thou shalt not play the harlot, and thou shalt not be for another man: so will I also be for thee" - a period of restraint before restoration.
What does the chapter predict for Israel's future?
Verses 4-5 say Israel will go "many days" without king, prince, sacrifice, or idols, and afterward will "return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king" - a turning point similar to the return described in Jeremiah 50:4-5.
