Hosea / Question
Question source
Hosea
God asks, “How can I give you up, O Ephraim?” in Hosea 11:8. The surrounding lines express God’s inner conflict over judgment and compassion.
8How shall I give you up, Ephraim? [how] shall I cast you off, Israel? how shall I make you as Admah? [how] shall I set you as Zeboiim? my heart is turned within me, my compassion is aroused.
