Abstract

The Book of Hosea portrays God's unconditional love amid Israel's unfaithfulness through the metaphor of Hosea's marriage to Gomer. This prophetic message illustrates God's transformative steadfast love (hesed), bringing His people spiritual, moral, and social restoration. In the socio-political context of 8th-century BCE Israel, idolatry, social injustice, and reliance on political alliances reflected severe spiritual decline. However, as revealed in Hosea's eschatological dimensions, God remained committed to restoring the covenant relationship through active and inclusive love. This love surpasses mere forgiveness, offering profound renewal. Hosea's message is highly relevant for today's church as a paradigm for restorative ministry amid modern challenges such as spiritual alienation and community disintegration. Through hesed, the church is called to become an agent of healing for social and spiritual wounds, offering hope and restoration. By adopting the model of God's love in Hosea, the church can reflect God's character in social services, spiritual care, and global mission, responding to the needs of a broken and sinful world.
