We are turning a corner into more punishment for Israel.  

 

Hosea Chapter 4

Excessive Banter: Fast Forward to 17:25 to start the study

WARNING: This episode contains (biblical) words that might be found offensive. Please be advised if you have younger listeners.  

Chapter 4 is where God lays out his case against Israel. It isn't looking good for them. But what does this mean for us? Also, there are some really fun translation notes and comments here. Getting through Hosea is no easy task, but we try our best to make it easier. 

Hosea Chapter 2:14-Chapter 3

The Lord has mercy on Israel and Hosea gets his wife back! All is well. At least for now...

Hosea Chapter 2:3-13

WARNING: This episode contains more adult-oriented subject matter. Please be advised if you have younger listeners.

It is impossible to serve God and idols. In this episode we see God painting a picture of what it looks like to flee from him and run towards false gods. 

Hosea Chapter 1:6-2:2

What do the people of Israel and Hosea's wife have in common?  It's nothing really good. Thanks for listening and we hope you are learning just as much as we are!

Hosea Intro - Chapter 1:1-5

We are back! Our first episode in the book of Hosea. We give a little background on the book and then dive right into the first chapter.  

This book does present some unique challenges and we feel it smooths out the further you get. We highly recommend the following commentaries to help you along:

Episode 62: Deut 33 - End

YOU MADE IT! The last chapter in Deuteronomy! We will be back in a couple weeks with Hosea, but until then, enjoy the completion of the book! Thank you for listening and we look forward to the next book.  

Episode 61: Deut 32:19-End

You know it is a good one when Moses says "I will make my arrows drunk with blood,
 and my sword shall devour flesh"  

 

Episode 60: Deut 32:1-18

Only 3 more episodes in Deuteronomy (including this one)! In this one we are going to start the dive into the song of Moses. Just know, I would not call it a love song. Well, I would if you consider the genre is metal. Or Goth. 

Episode 59: Deuteronomy 31

Moses was like a good estate planner. He wanted Israel to know what would happen when he died. He appointed a successor and then proceeded to be typical, grumpy Moses.  

Enjoy our 59th episode. As always, feel free to comment or email us (baqash@outllook.com) if you have any comments or questions! Thanks for listening.
