A companion video to lesson 2 of the same series that asks the following questions:

Hosea designed his book to impart wisdom to God's people, so how should we understand the concept of wisdom?

What significance for Hosea's overall message do we gain from the closure of his book in 14:9?

Given that Hosea's purpose was to challenge Judah to gain wisdom, how should we understand the purpose of biblical prophecy in general?

Why did God tell Hosea to marry a wife of whoredom?

What did God intend to convey through Hosea's marriage and their children's names?

What does Hosea's family life teach us about a prophet's role in representing God's covenant with Israel?

Why do New Testament authors refer to the time from the first coming of Christ to his return as "the last days" or "latter days"?

Why does Hosea condemn foreign alliances in his book?

Why does Hosea provide such harsh condemnations of idolatry?

What can we learn from the fact that Hosea wasn't the only prophet giving similar warnings to Israel and Judah prior to their exiles?

What can we learn from God's warnings of judgment throughout Scripture?

Why does God demonstrate so much patience with Israel when he has promised to judge his people with covenant curses if they disobey?

What hope for Israel does Hosea provide in 14:1-8?
