Hosea / Question
Question source
Hosea
God commands that Hosea’s son be named Jezreel and explains it as a sign of coming punishment and an end to Israel’s kingdom Hosea 1:4. The name is linked to God “avenging the blood of Jezreel” in the passage.
4Yahweh said to him, Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel on the house of Jehu, and will cause the kingdom of the house of Israel to cease.
