PLOW
This thing shows up in Hosea 10:11: “Ephraim is a trained heifer that loves to thresh; so I will put a yoke on her beautiful neck. I will set a rider on Ephraim. Judah will…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Hosea 10:11
“Ephraim is a trained heifer that loves to thresh; so I will put a yoke on her beautiful neck. I will set a rider on Ephraim. Judah will plow. Jacob will break his clods.”
