My latest.
Her name was Gomer, daughter of Diblaim. Married early in life to Hosea, an Old Testament prophet who loved her with a passion that suffuses the very Scriptures themselves, if there was ever a woman who should have had every reason to stay true to God, it was Gomer. Yet the story of her faithlessness, betrayal, and eventual flight from her husband Hosea -even abandoning her three children in the process- was so sordid that God Himself used her as an eternal metaphor for Israel’s fall into idolatry.

The God of Israel was always a God of redemption, but what would it take to redeem a prophet’s wife who had become a harlot?
