Hosea2:10
10 And now will I discover her lewdness , in the sight of her lovers , and none shall deliver her out of mine hand .
When I make a siezure, and strip her of all that is mine▪ I will expose her, or else I shortly will do so, ere long.
Folly and wickedness of her Idolatrous Worship, (and perhaps the corporal lewdnesses which Idolaters seldom were free from, may be here intended)
among whom most will loath her, and hoot at her, some secretly despise her, if any shall attempt to help at this dead lift, it shall be to no purpose.
They who would deliver her are few and weak, unable to rescue her from the infamy I adjudge her to. In short, as she hath like a strumpet shamelesly sin'd, so like a strumpet she shall be shamefully, with greatest infamy punished; and I saith the Lord, will see it done.
Marginal references: Ezek. 16.37, and 23.29.; Heb. folly, Or, villany.
