Description
The Apostle Paul teaches that Christ’s resurrection on the third day was in accord with the Scriptures (1 Cor. 15:4). It was common among the early church fathers to read Hosea 6:2 as one of those Scriptures that is full of Gospel hope. Yet when Hosea is read in its eighth century BC context, condemnation of Israel’s sin abounds rather than hope of the coming Messiah. Can this impasse between the interpretive move of the early church and current hermeneutical practice be resolved?
