Book of Hosea~ He married her anyway



Hosea 1:2-3 (NKJV)

[2] When the Lord began to speak by Hosea, the Lord said to Hosea:
“Go, take yourself a wife of harlotry
And children of harlotry,
For the land has committed great harlotry
By departing from the Lord.”
[3] So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.

Hosea 3:1-3 (NKJV)

[1] Then the Lord said to me, “Go again, love a woman who is loved by a lover and is committing adultery, just like the love of the Lord for the children of Israel, who look to other gods and love the raisin cakes of the pagans.”
[2] So I bought her for myself for fifteen shekels of silver, and one and one-half homers of barley.
[3] And I said to her, “You shall stay with me many days; you shall not play the harlot, nor shall you have a man—so, too, will I be toward you.”
