		God directed him to take her as his wife, and so it was that Gomer, the daughter of Diblaim, became the unlikely wife of the budding young preacher.
		Gomer’s absences from home probably grew more frequent and prolonged and soon Hosea was feeling pangs of suspicion about her faithfulness to him.
		Gomer was still beloved of Hosea even though she was an adulteress, and God wanted him to seek her out and prove his love to her.

		Gomer has shown no sign at all of being broken hearted for the way she's treated Hosea, and all the things that she's done to other men, and the influence she's had on her children, and the effect her life has had on the preaching of the word of God in the land.
		It's only when Gomer realises the enormity of her sin and that she faced an open-ended encounter with a God who hates sin, that she'd know adding superficial religion wasn't going to help her.
		Think of the woman of John 8, like Gomer she was caught in the act of adultery, breaking the seventh commandment.

		Some wonder if Gomer was already a prostitute when they got married or if she became unfaithful later.
		Just like Gomer was forced to live with Hosea without depending on her own resources for coping with life and manipulating those around her, we also need to learn to stop depending on our own resources.

		As Hosea pleads to Gomer, the former temple prostitute and the adulterous second wife, to accept his love and behave properly, he represents God’s love towards his people.

	HOSEA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		His message is stated as a powerful metaphor; in his call to prophecy he is told to marry a prostitute named Gomer, who seems later to become the adulterous wife.
		Subsequently, he demands that his adulterous wife (if she is Gomer) or adulterous mistress, whom he has purchased at God’s request, to become celibate in relationship to himself as well as to other lovers (3:3) These demands and expectations are extreme and unrealistic, and in fact inappropriate for his chosen wife.
		The fact that the Sages of the Talmud, who canonized the Hebrew Bible, deemed it necessary to dispute the writings of Ezekiel and Hosea suggests that their behavior was eccentric even for prophets.

		The metaphor stories, presenting Hosea and Gomer (his wife/prostitute) and presenting God and Israel are so intimately intertwined in the Book of Hosea that it is not possible to separate the two stories.

		Chapter 1 introduces Hosea, introduces the fact that he is to take a wife named Gomer, and this wife is going to be unfaithful to him.
		Because the life of Gomer and Hosea, as a married couple, is designed to be a picture of what it is like for Israel to walk away from God.
		The love of Hosea for his unfaithful wife Gomer is the story of the love of God for His unfaithful people, Israel.

	Volume 3 Studies In The Book Of Revelation
		The bible speaks of a great multitude which shall stand up for Christ during that time and will be massacred.
		What few Christians desire to acknowledge is that the bible also promises Christians that their prayers shall be answered, all of their needs shall be supplied, all of their sickness and diseases shall be healed, and their shall be a great outpouring of wealth upon the true family of God.
		While all this is and should be acknowledged throughout the church, the sad reality is that due to a lack of faith, or a life of sin, or for whatever reason, Christians do not always have their sickness and diseases healed, their prayers are not always answered, and many suffer the bondage of financial poverty.

		Since there was a non-Israelite people mentioned in the Bible called GOMER and according to one way of understanding the indications of the Prophet Hosea this people did amalgamate with the exiled Israelites it may be that Cimmerians were ALSO to be found north of the Caucasus at an early date.

		The KJV wording strengthens the interpolation that Gomer, as a result of her sin, has sunken to the level of slavery, and Hosea is graciously redeeming her from her taskmasters.
		That Hosea needed to hire Gomer in order to renew his relation with her shows that she was still in an unrepentant state and could only be "tricked" into living with Hosea through one of her customary business deals.
