We Believe In one God, eternally existent in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit

Hosea

The name (hoshea Septuagint Osee-; for other forms see note in DB), probably meaning “help,” seems to have been not uncommon,

I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely for mine anger is turned away from him.

I will be as the dew unto Israel: he shall grow as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon.
