More on GodŐs Divorce
lThe book of Hosea is an even more telling example of how God will respond to adulterous Israel:
Hosea 3:4 (NASU) For the sons of Israel will remain for many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or [sacred] pillar and without ephod or household idols.
5 Afterward the sons of Israel will return and seek the Lord their God and David their king; and they will come trembling to the Lord and to His goodness in the last days.
