Charles Spurgeon Commentary Hosea 2:5

"for their mother hath played the harlot; she that conceived them hath done shamefully; for she said, I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, mine oil and my drink." — Hosea 2:5 (ASV)

She attributed to false gods the gifts that God had given to her.

This was great ingratitude to God, and a high insult to His holy majesty.
