Hosea 6:2

"“Come! Let’s return to the LORD; for he has torn us to pieces, and he will heal us; he has injured us, and he will bind up our wounds."

Key Reflection

This verse contrasts God's judgment with His mercy. It suggests that despite being disciplined by God, there is hope for healing and restoration. The text implies that through divine correction, even when it seems harsh, a path to renewal and wholeness is available.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

After two days will He revive us (or quicken us, give us life,) in the third day He will raise us up -The Resurrection of Christ, and our resurrection in Him and in His Resurrection, could not be more plainly foretold. The prophet expressly mentions “two days,” after which life should be given, and a “third day, on” which the resurrection should take place.
