Hosea

Uses the prophet's marriage as a symbol for Israel's unfaithfulness and God's faithful love.

Chapter 1

KJV - Hosea 1:6

And she conceived again, and bare a daughter. And God said unto him, Call her name Loruhamah: for I will no more have mercy upon the house of Israel; but I will utterly take them away.

She became pregnant again and had a daughter. God told him to name her Loruhamah because he would not show mercy on the house of Israel anymore. Instead, he would completely destroy them.
