6
Minun kansani joutuu häviöön, sillä se on taitoa vailla. Koska sinä olet hyljännyt taidon, hylkään minä sinut, niin ettet saa olla minun pappinani. Koska olet unhottanut Jumalasi lain, unhotan myös minä sinun lapsesi.
Hosea 4:6
The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms #187
187. Internal Meaning of Hosea, Chapter 4
1-3 There is in the church nothing but evil and falsity from the falsified Word; (3)
4-9 and because nothing of the law and doctrine remains, the church has been destroyed. (3)
10-12 Because they have falsified the Word they are no longer able to understand truth, but will behold falsity. (3)
13 For this reason their worship will be from falsities. (3)
14 Will they not perish on this account? (3)
15-19 Likewise those in the spiritual church: these will go away into falsities. (3, 1)
Hosea 4:14
14
I will not punish your daughters when they play the prostitute, nor your brides when they commit adultery; because the men consort with prostitutes, and they sacrifice with the shrine prostitutes; so the people without understanding will come to ruin.
