Israel Rejects Hosea’s Prophetic Exhortations
9:7 The time of judgment is about to arrive ! The time of retribution is imminent! Let Israel know ! The prophet is considered a fool – the inspired man is viewed as a madman – because of the multitude of your sins and your intense animosity .
9:8 The prophet is a watchman over Ephraim on behalf of God , yet traps are laid for him along all of his paths ; animosity rages against him in the land of his God .
