The life of Hosea and his problematic marriage to Gomer was a living example of God's problematic marriage to Israel. Just as Gomer kept going off with other men so Israel kept worshipping the gods of other nations even though the God of Israel was the only one with any proven power.

By studying the life of Hosea in the context of the history of Israel at that time there are many lessons we, in the twenty first century, can learn about our walk with God

In hindsight Peter realised God had chosen him from birth and personally trained and directed him throughout his life. A Jew asked him to write on Genesis, and his rabbinic brother to write on Moses’ Tent of the Meeting.

Peter writes purely by inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and has the gift of leading people into a deeper spiritual understanding of the word and a closer union with God. He led the rabbi to a personal meeting with his Messiah through his writing. See A Tale of Three Men.
