Raised Up on the Third Day
Hosea calls Israel to return to the Lord, trusting that after judgment God will revive and raise his people on the third day.
Hosea 6:1–3
1Come, and let us return unto the LORD: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up.
2After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.
3Then shall we know, [if] we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter [and] former rain unto the earth.
