Albert Barnes Commentary Hosea 7:10

"And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: yet they have not returned unto Jehovah their God, nor sought him, for all this." — Hosea 7:10 (ASV)

And the pride of Israel testifies to his face - His pride convicted him. All the afflictions of God did not humble him; indeed, they only brought out his pride, which “kept him from acknowledging and repenting of the sins which had brought those evils upon him, and from “turning to God and seeking to Him” for remedy.” People complain of their “fortune” or “fate” or “stars,” and go on more obstinately, to build up what God destroys, to prop up by human means or human aid what, by God’s providence, is failing; they venture more desperately, in order to recover past losses, until the crash at last becomes hopeless and final.

Nor seek Him for all this - God had exhausted all the treasures of His severity, as, before, of His love. He Himself marvels at His incorrigible and contumacious servant, as He says in Isaiah, “Why should ye be stricken anymore? Ye will revolt more and more” (Isaiah 1:5). How is this? It follows, because they have “no heart.”
