Ephraim also is like a silly dove without heart: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 11 is found in chapter 7 of Hosea. Ephraim is compared to a senseless dove that flies toward Egypt and Assyria seeking protection. Instead of returning to God, the kingdom alternately seeks foreign powers. The irony is that these political allies will eventually become instruments of discipline. Israel’s foreign policy is presented as a symptom of disordered spiritual trust.
