With reference to Hosea 1:7,10,11—HOSEA declares that Judah shall be saved by Jehovah [Yahweh] their Elohim; that is, by Messiah; that in the countries where it is now said to them, "Ye are not the people of Jehovah [Yahweh]," there they shall be called, "The sons of the living God." He says also, that at that time Judah and Israel shall become a united nation, and agree to place themselves under One Chief; that he shall betroth the nation to himself for the Aion; that they shall hear Jezreel; that he shall be a David and that this shall come to pass in the Latter Days; and that these, the days of their national resurrection, shall be "in the third day" after their being rent, and removed out of His sight. This can only mean during a third period of a thousand years. The present year of Ephraim's rending and dispersion is 2,588, which is synchronical with that of our era 1861 (ch. 1:7,10,11; 2:19,22; 3:4,5: 5:14,15; 6:2).
