Hosea 7:5 - Adam Clarke

Hosea 7:5

3 They make a ^aking glad with their wickedness,
And princes ^bwith their lies.

4 “They^a are all adulterers.
Like an oven heated by a baker—
He ceases stirring the fire after kneading the dough,
Until it is leavened.

5 In the day of our king
Princes have made him sick,¹ inflamed with ^awine;
He stretched out his hand with scoffers.

6 They prepare their heart like an oven,
While they lie in wait;
¹Their baker sleeps all night;
In the morning it burns like a flaming fire.

7 They are all hot, like an oven,
And have devoured their judges;
All their kings have fallen.
^aNone among them calls upon Me.

8 “Ephraim ^ahas mixed himself among the peoples;
Ephraim is a cake unturned.

9 ^aAliens have devoured his strength,
But he does not know it;
Yes, gray hairs are here and there on him,
Yet he does not know it.
