“I gave thee a king in mine anger, and took him away in my wrath.”
Hosea 13:11 (KJV)
Commentary on Hosea 13:11
I gave thee a king in mine anger, and took him away in my wrath. God gave Israel kings as judgment (granting sinful request, 1 Samuel 8:7) and removed them in wrath (exile, assassination). Both giving and taking stem from divine displeasure. Romans 1:24, 26, 28 similarly describes God giving people up to sin's consequences as judgment. Sometimes getting what we demand is itself punishment. Only God's gracious refusals protect us. His no often expresses love; our yes often reveals idol worship. Christ provides what we actually need rather than what we wrongly want.
