Exegesis:Hosea 6:5
So them – I am against. In my prophets I will split you in two in the words of the desires of their mouths and a fire of judgment I will bring against you.
(Dalton) “So them” – so them who? We can find ourselves in the binding hand when we bow (meaning to worship) like the nations. And the nations – those who aren’t a part of the most excellent covenant of Blood and life – are living in a self-constructed fiction of lies centered around carnality and temporarily. YHVH has stretched out His hand and some of them of the nations have reached out and grabbed it. A remnant of Israel has done the same. In addition to grabbing the Hand, they have chosen to walk in all of His ways. What a testimony of love this is, both of a heathen and Israel to turn from their way unto the Most High; and of the Most High to forgive those of their sins and teach them in firm kindness.
However, we must remember that in the mouths of the prophets of YHVH His words proceed from. He will split both the House of Israel and the nations in two for their unrepentant sins, transgressions and unfaithful transgression of the covenant. For those who have joined into the covenant and still transgress His Most Excellent Ways, their judgement will come first and harshly. For in the words of the desires of YHVH’s prophets – whom He has spoken through – their desires they speak are YHVH’s desires. A prophet who speaks Truthfully, speaks the Word of the Most High; and righteous judgments will be pronounced and levied against both the House of Israel and the nations.
This was then: a righteous foreshadow of the World to Come; and now: as a correcting rod to bring those who've been called back to The Straight and Narrow.
