“I taught Ephraim also to go, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them.”
Hosea 11:3 (KJV)
Commentary on Hosea 11:3
Teaching to walk: 'I taught Ephraim also to go, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them.' Tender imagery: God teaching (תִּרְגַּלְתִּי, tirgalti) Ephraim to walk, holding זְרוֹעֹתָם (zero'otam, their arms) like parent with toddler. Yet לֹא יָדְעוּ כִּי רְפָאתִים (lo yade'u ki refatim, they knew not that I healed them). This demonstrates divine parental care: teaching, supporting, healing—yet unrecognized and unappreciated. The ignorance is willful: refusing to acknowledge benefactor. Only Spirit-opened eyes recognize God's faithful care (Ephesians 1:18).
