Therefore, it is she to whom her author, as to a virgin betrothed to him but long deferred from the nuptial joys, speaks through the prophet: You will wait for me many days; you will not be a harlot nor be with a man, but I will wait for you (Hosea III). As the same prophet consequently explained what he said: Because the children of Israel will sit many days without a king, without a prince, without a sacrifice, without an altar, without ephod, and without theraphim. And after this, the children of Israel will turn back and seek the Lord their God and David their king, and they will fear the Lord and his goodness in the last days.<br/><i>— Commentary on Samuel</i></p>","source_html_sha256":"19e48505f37779ada236ccf76405064248714b98c3457083748251aabad079f9","source_module":"ECF","source_row_id":1239,"source_url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/commentary/ecf/","text_sha256":"014add151614f08545fa397b30817fcab84f4e37ed78aed40251a8e9817b8169","translator":null,"work":null}
