This passage is tightly held together by the same positive tone and themes. It is somewhat forced to subdivide it, but for the sake of simplicity we might summarize it under three headings:
The promise of reconciliation with God (Hosea 1:10)
The promise of reconciliation with Judah and return from exile (Hosea 1:11)
The exhortation to proclaim the renaming of God’s people (Hosea 2:1)
The language of future promise ties Hosea 1:10–11 together, with the phrase and/but it shall be
underpinning the unit.1 Hosea 2:1 is clearly a command for Israel to share this reversal with their southern neighbours, which sets it apart slightly from the preceding verses.
1 Cependant le nombre des enfants d'Israël sera comme le sable de la mer, qui ne peut ni se mesurer ni se compter; et au lieu de leur dire: Vous n'êtes pas mon peuple! on leur dira: Fils du Dieu vivant!
