Indeed, its leaders and protectors, that is, the kings, took pleasure in bringing dishonor to the people, that is, in the vice of the princes. That which the Seventy translated (\"Al.\" placed) as \"provoked the Canaanites,\" is not found in Hebrew, but it can be thus interpreted, that we say only that Israel had such zeal for the worship of idols, that it did not imitate the Canaanites, that is, the heathen; but it provoked them to emulate its own error. And what is said, \"He provoked the Canaanites,\" can be referred to heretics in the same sense, that most heretics have invented such abominations and filthy things, and have impure sacrifices, so that idolatry is inferior. Or certainly because \"Cananaean\" means \"trader,\" or μετάβολος, that is, \"translator,\" all those who make the Father's house a house of trade (John 2), and seek profits from the people, and transfer the truth of the Church into falsehood, are to be called Canaanites. For this is what is said: their gathering has been separated, they committed fornication once, and their leaders have deceived the unhappy people; and for the worship of God they have imbued them with the disgrace of idols.<br/><i>— Commentary on Hosea 4:17-19</i></p>","source_html_sha256":"db9d5a2169912c435723ebe46a856c75e88bb8bc8f9319bbc53c3e3bc31b76a5","source_module":"ECF","source_row_id":6863,"source_url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/commentary/ecf/","text_sha256":"49ed96328d1f1c43d4741bd6fddd9818cc0d88f9f5de21fb38d37d4bee2e9f4a","translator":null,"work":null}
