Hosea 3 is the short,[a] third, chapter of the Book of Hosea in the Hebrew Bible or the Old Testament of the Christian Bible.[1][2] This book, part of the Book of the Twelve Minor Prophets,[3][4] contains the prophecies attributed to the prophet Hosea, son of Beeri, and this chapter refers autobiographically to Hosea's marriage to a woman who is an adulterer.[5] His purchase of her from a paramour is treated in the Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary as a symbol of "Israel's condition in their present dispersion, subsequent to their return from Babylon".[6]
