Hosea 3
Hosea 3 is the short, third, chapter of the Book of Hosea in the Hebrew Bible or the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. This book, part of the Book of the Twelve Minor Prophets, contains the prophecies attributed to the prophet Hosea, son of Beeri, and this chapter refers autobiographically to Hosea's marriage to a woman who is an adulterer. His purchase of her from a paramour is treated in the Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary as a symbol of "Israel's condition in their present dispersion, subsequent to their return from Babylon".
