Batman: Greetings, Robin. Our mission today is to explore the book of Hosea.

Robin: What shall we discover, Batman?

Batman: Hosea 1 tells us about the prophet's call to preach God's word. He was told to marry an adulterous woman, a sign of God's love for Israel despite their unfaithfulness.

Catwoman: How romantic!

Batman: Hosea and his wife had three children. The names of two were symbolic of Israel's sins, Jezreel and Lo-ruhamah. The third child was named Lo-ammi, which means 'not my people'.

Robin: That is a sad reminder of God's judgment on Israel.

Batman: Yes, Robin, but it was also a sign of hope. The Lord promised to restore them and bless them in the future.

Catwoman: What a happy ending!
