“And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour them, because of their own counsels.”
Hosea 11:6 (KJV)
Commentary on Hosea 11:6
Sword in cities: 'And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour them, because of their own counsels.' The חֶרֶב (cherev, sword) will חָלָה (chalah, abide/whirl) on cities, consume בַּדָּיו (baddav, branches/bars), and devour—because of מִמֹּעֲצוֹתֵיהֶם (mimmo'atsoteihem, their counsels). This demonstrates that human wisdom apart from God leads to destruction. Their schemes—political alliances, false worship, social injustice—produce sword that devours. Only Christ's counsel brings life (John 6:68).
