Section 06
Judah Preserved For A Time
Hosea 1 also says Yahwah will have compassion on Judah for a time.
That matters because Judah is not immediately treated the same as the northern
kingdom. Judah has a preserved role in the visible covenant story, centered
around Jerusalem, the Temple frame, and the later public identity that becomes
Judean/Jewish.
But "preserved for a time" does not mean "never judged."
