SCRIPTURE

"My God will cast them away, because they did not hearken unto him; and they shall be wanderers among the nations." — Hosea 9:17 (ASV)

Wanderers. —Strangely confirmed from Assyrian monuments and the entire subsequent history of the bulk of Israel; and Israel still wanders, not coalescing with any nation, unless they lose their ancient faith by corruption into idolatry, or conversion to Christianity. (See Pusey.)
