Hosea 7:10

And the pride of Israel Repeated from Hosea 5:5, just as Hosea 12:9 ais repeated in Hosea 13:4 a. It is not the prophet who speaks condemning a bad quality in his people, but Jehovah, Israel's true Pride, and the source of Israel's prosperity, who utters a solemn word of warning translated into act. How much more suitable this explanation is in such a context than either of the alternatives mentioned on Hosea 5:5.

for all this i.e. in spite of all this chastisement, comp. Isaiah 9:12; Isaiah 9:17; Isaiah 9:21.
