<p> ("not My people".) Jezreel, Lo-ruhamah ("not loved"), and Lo-ammi are the three children of the prophet Hosea's wife, Gomer, taken by God's command. "Jezreel" symbolised the coming destruction of Jehu's line, as [[Jehu]] had destroyed that of [[Ahab]] of Jezreel; also that as [[Jezreel]] means both [[God]] sows and God scatters, so God will yet sow [[Israel]] whom He now scatters (Hosea 1:4-6; Hosea 1:9-10; Hosea 1:11), "great shall be the day of Jezreel," i.e. great shall be the day when they shall be God's seed planted in their own land by God (Jeremiah 24:6; Jeremiah 31:28; Jeremiah 32:41; Amos 9:15; Hosea 2:23). "I will sow her (Jezreel, the sown one, Hosea 2:22) unto ... Me in the earth." Not only Judaea, but the whole earth shall be the seed plot wherein [[Gentile]] nations shall be the spiritual growth of the [[Jewish]] seed sown everywhere (Micah 5:7; Romans 11:12; Romans 11:15; Zechariah 10:9). Lo-ruhamah, changed into Ruhama, means that He will first withdraw His "loving mercy" and at last restore it. And Lo-ammi, changed into Ammi, that He will make Israel, now "not His people" owing to apostasy, to become again "His people." The three children symbolize successive generations: </p> <p> (1) Jezreel represents the dynasty of [[Jeroboam]] I, ending with Jehu's shedding the blood of the last of the line at Jezreel; </p> <p> (2) Lo-ruhamah, a daughter, represents the effeminate period which followed; </p> <p> (3) Loammi, a son, represents Jeroboam II's vigorous dynasty, which however brought no revival of religion; still Israel was not God's people really, and so should be no longer so in name but cast away. </p> | |||

<p> <strong> LO-AMMI. </strong> A symbolical name given to Hosea’s son ( Hosea 1:9 ), signifying ‘not my people,’ as <strong> Lo-ruhamah </strong> , the name of his daughter, signifies ‘not-pitied.’ Opinions are divided as to whether these names are of actual persons used symbolically, or are purely allegorical. See art. Hosea. </p> <p> W. F. Cobb. </p> | |||
