Context of Hosea 2:22
20And I will betroth you to Me in faithfulness. Then you will know the Lord. 21“And it will come about on that day that I will respond,” declares the Lord. “I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth, And the earth will respond to the grain, to the new wine, and to the oil, And they will respond to Jezreel. 23I will sow her for Myself in the land. I will also have compassion on her who had not obtained compassion, And I will say to those who were not My people, ‘You are My people!’ And they will say, ‘You are my God!’”

- Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 21-22Unfaithful Israel believed her food and clothing came from her lovers, the Baals (Hosea 2:5).
