Commentary
Commentary on Hosea 5:11
Theological / DevotionalOppressed and broken. Or, “oppressed and crushed.” God will use the heathen to chastise His people.
The commandment. Literally, “a command.” Rather than follow the commandments of God, the people obeyed those of men (see Matt. 15:7-9). It is likely that this specifically refers to the command of Jeroboam I to worship the calves, when he revolted from Judah (see 1 Kings 12:25-33).
