Hosea 11:8

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Hosea 11:8. How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? how shall I deliver thee, Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah? how shall I set thee as Zeboim? mine heart is turned within me, my repentings are kindled together.

And this divine turning and repenting, remember, were toward a people who did not turn to the Lord. God turned towards a people that would not turn towards him, and his repentings were "kindled together" towards the nation that would not repent. Oh, the unspeakable, the unthinkable grace of God! He doeth for us "exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think."
