The structure of Hosea 2

1. Accusation of adultery and consequent discipline (Hosea 2:2–13)

2. The merciful promise of covenant restoration (Hosea 2:14–23)¹

Once again the break between these two sections is well-established because it follows the pattern we have observed in Hosea 1:1 – 2:1: the predicament of judgment giving way to the promise of restoration.
