Commentary on Hosea 9:2

Theological / Devotional

Shall not feed them. Though Israel exults over her harvest blessings, the people would be unable to enjoy the abundant produce of their fields, because they would be carried away captive to Assyria, as apparently is implied in v. 3. When God’s blessings are turned to the purposes of sin, in mercy He takes them away.
