Oseas 7:6

6 Sus corazones son como un horno
recalentado con intriga.
Sus maquinaciones humean
durante la noche
y por la mañana estallan en un incendio violento.

Oseas 7:6 Meaning and Commentary

Hosea 7:6

For they have made ready their heart like an oven, whiles they
lie in wait
The prince, people, and scorners before mentioned, being heated with wine, and their lust enraged, they were ready for any wickedness; for the commission of adultery, lying in wait for their neighbours' wives to debauch them; or for rebellion and treason against their king, and even the murder of him, made drunk by them, whom they now despised, and waited for an opportunity to dispatch him: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a
flaming fire;
as a baker having put wood into his oven, and kindled it, leaves it, and sleeps all night, and in the morning it is all burning, and in a flame, and his oven is thoroughly heated, and fit for his purpose; so the evil concupiscence in these men's hearts, made hot like an oven, rests all night, devising mischief on their beds, either against the chastity of their neighbours' wives, or against the lives of others, they bear an ill will to, particularly against their judges and their kings, as ( Hosea 7:7 ) ; seems to intimate; and in the morning this lust of uncleanness or revenge is all in a flame, and ready to execute the wicked designs contrived; see ( Micah 2:1 ) . Some by "their baker" understand Satan; others, their king asleep and secure; others Shallum, the head of the conspiracy against Zachariah.
