Hosea 8:2 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Israel, the ten tribes, shall cry in deep distress; when the Assyrian rangeth over their country, when Samaria is besieged, they will cry out aloud, but hypocritically; they will roar, but not pray. My God; then they will look to the ancient alliance and league between their fathers and me. We know thee, an only Saviour; be ours, for we are thine. Thus in hypocrisy will they carry it.

Hosea 8:2

2 Israel shall cry unto me, My God, we know thee.
