"For I will be like a lion to Ephraim, like a lion cub to the house of Judah. It is I, it is I who will tear, then I will go away, I will take away the prey, and there will be no nobody who takes it from me. I will go away, I will return to my home, until they recognize themselves guilty, and they seek my face. They will seek me early in the morning in their anguish. " (Hosea 5: 14-15)
The Lord speaks to us here of his death on the cross, of his sacrifice. He tells us that he will return to his home (his Kingdom) which represents his death, until the people of Israel repent and seek his face, and he says they will seek him in their anguish. We know that every child of God is saved by going through anguish, but since this passage is primarily about the people of Israel I firmly believe that it is speaking here of the great tribulation that will take place after the rapture of l Church and which particularly concerns the people of Israel.
The rest of the passage:
“Come and let us return to Yahweh! For it is he who tears, but he will heal us; he struck, but he will bandage our wounds. He will bring us back to life in two days, and on the third day he will make us well and we will live in his presence. Let us know and follow Yahweh in order to know him; his coming is as certain as that of dawn. He will come for us like the rain, like the spring rain that waters the earth. "" (Hosea 6: 1-3)
This passage tells us about the resurrection of the people of Israel: "He will restore us to life." And he tells us about the return of Jesus who will come precisely according to the prophecies to deliver Israel and reign with us on the earth. We understand that since the Lord died on the cross two prophetic days ago, two thousand years until Jesus returned to earth. We also know that we are in the sixth day now and that God is creating man in his image. So when Jesus returns we will enter into God's prophetic Sabbath day which is the seventh day and the millennium. After this millennium it is a new day and it is an eternal day; it is both the eighth and the first day of the week, the day after the Sabbath, the day that Christ was resurrected according to the flesh, and the day that Jerusalem (the temple of God) will be rebuilt:
"But after the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the sepulcher." (Matthew 28: 1)
"Therefore thus says Yahweh: I have returned to Jerusalem with compassion. My house will be built there, says Yahweh of hosts, and the line will be stretched out over Jerusalem." "Cry again, saying: 'Thus saith the LORD of hosts, My cities shall yet be overflowing with good things, and the LORD shall yet comfort Zion, and he shall yet choose Jerusalem." "" (Zechariah 1: 16-17)
"Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth passed away and the sea is no more. And I, John, saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down from heaven, from God, adorned as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from heaven say, "Here is the tabernacle of God with humans! He will pitch his tent with them and they will be his people and God himself will be their God, and he will be with them: and God will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, and there will be no mourning, no cry, no pain, for first things are past. ”And he that sitteth on the throne said,“ Behold, I make all things new. ”Then he said to me,“ Write, for these words are true and certain. ”” (Revelation 21: 1- 5)
If the temple is rebuilt after the seventh day is fulfilled, this also fits with the Word of the Lord which tells us that in three days (since his death) he will rebuild the temple (John 2:19).
What also sticks to confirm that we are on the sixth day and at its end is that this will mean that Christ who is the Light would have died at the end of the fourth day. And the fourth day:
"Then God said:" Let there be lights in the firmament of the sky to separate the night from the day, that they become signs for the appointed times, for the days and for the years, and that they become lights in the firmament of the sky in order to light up the earth! ”So it was. So God made the two great lights, the great light to rule over the day and the small light to rule over the night, as well as the stars. God placed them in the firmament of the sky to give light on the earth, to rule over the day and over the night, and to separate light from darkness. God saw that it was good. There was evening and there was morning: fourth day. " (Genesis 1: 14-19)
The stars represent the children of God who are created on the fourth day, by the Word and Spirit of God (Water and Blood) and through sacrifice. Jesus came to separate the Light from the darkness, the wheat from the tares, and he does it with us, for we are the Light of the world.
"While I am in the world, I am the light of the world." (John 9: 5)
“You are the light of the world. A city on a mountain cannot be hidden; and you don't light a lamp to put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick and it shines for all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before the people, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven. ”” (Matthew 5: 14-16)
And Jesus spoke to them again, saying, "I AM the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." (John: 8-12)
