# Connecting Statement:
In this section Paul explains how Israel's unbelief as a nation was told ahead of time by the prophet Hosea.
# As he says also in Hosea
Here "he" refers to God. Alternate translation: "As God says also in the book that Hosea wrote" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
# Hosea
Hosea was a prophet. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/translate-names]])
# I will call them 'my people' who were not my people
"I will choose those who were not my people to be my people"
# her 'beloved' who was not beloved
Here "her" refers to Hosea's wife, Gomer, who represents the nation of Israel. You can translate this in an active form. Alternate translation: "I will choose her whom I did not love to be one whom I love" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
