Just here to leave this solution to the paradox for anybody interested.
http://www.tektonics.org/tsr/jehukingsvshosea.html-The universe begins to look more like a great thought than a great machine.
Sir James Jeans
-This most beautiful system (The Universe) could only proceed from the dominion of an intelligent and powerful Being.All variety of created objects which represent order and Life in the Universe could happen only by the willful reasoning of its original Creator, whom I call the Lord God.
Sir Isaac Newton

Here is what we are arguing analogically: Smith has vandalized Doe's car, all right, but Doe hired him to vandalize it because he was entering an old-fashioned demolition race and wanted to look the part. But then, Smith also went on to Doe's house and set it on fire and painted Doe's dog purple. So, since Smith is an expert in vandalizing cars for such purposes as described, Doe chooses a condemnation that Smith will grasp perfectly: "For painting my dog and burning my house, I'm gonna mess your face up, and it's gonna look just like my car does now." That, we argue, is what Hosea is doing, in a typical ANE communication fashion: Choosing a graphic example very familiar to the subject at hand (the house of Jehu) in order to let them know what's ahead for them.Last edited by tabibito; 04-19-2019, 08:45 PM.1Cor 15:34 Come to your senses as you ought and stop sinning; for I say to your shame, there are some who know not God.

I don't have a problem with real contradictions, but dreaming up contradictions is another matter. In this case, the so called contradiction was used to both underpin the idea that God wouldn't do anything nasty, and to contradict the idea that prophets actually speak by inspiration of the Holy Spirit. All they do, according to the proponent, is give their best guess of what they think God wants.1Cor 15:34 Come to your senses as you ought and stop sinning; for I say to your shame, there are some who know not God.
