HOSHEA 3

1 Then said Hashem unto me, Go again, love an isha (woman, wife) beloved of her re’a (friend, companion), yet a noefet (adulteress), just like the ahavat Hashem toward the Bnei Yisroel, who look to elohim acharim, and love heathen religion raisin cakes.*3:1 Jer 44:19

2 So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of kesef, and for a chomer and a half of se’orim;*3:2 1K 1:18-19 3 And I said unto her, Thou shalt abide with me yamim rabbim and shalt not play the zonah, and thou shalt not be for another ish; and thus will I also towards thee. 1
