[1] {thousand three hundred and five and thirty days}
Three periods of "days" date from the "abomination" (i.e. the blasphemous
assumption of deity by the Beast,
# Da 12:11 Mt 24:15 2Th 2:4
(1) Twelve hundred and sixty days to the destruction of the Beast
# Da 7:25 12:7 Re 19:19,20
This is also the duration of the great tribulation
» See Note "Dan 12.4
(2) Dating from the same event is a period of 1290 days, and addition
of thirty days.
# Da 12:11
(3) Again forty-five days are added, and with them the promise of
verse 12. No account is directly given of that which occupies the
interval of seventy-five days between the end of the tribulation and
the full blessing of verse 12. It is suggested that the explanation
may be found in the prophetic descriptions of the events following the
battle of Armageddon.
# Re 16:14 19:21
The Beast is destroyed, and Gentile world-dominion ended, by the
smiting of the "Stone cut out without hands" at the end of the
1260 days, but the scene is, so to speak, filled with the debris
of the image which the "wind" must carry away before full
blessing comes in

Scofield Reference Notes (1917) Book Introductions HOSEA
Hosea was a contemporary of Amos in Israel, and of Isaiah and Micah in
Judah, and his ministry continued after the first, or Assyrian, captivity
of the northern kingdom
# 2Ki 15:29
His style is abrupt, metaphorical, and figurative.
Israel is Jehovah's adulterous wife, repudiated, but ultimately to be
purified and restored. This is Hosea's distinctive message, which may be
summed up in his two words, Lo-ammi, "not my people," and Ammi, "my
people." Israel is not merely apostate and sinful--that is said also;
but her sin takes its character from the exalted relationship into which
she has been brought.
The book is in three parts: I. The dishonoured wife, 1.1-3.5. II. The
sinful people, 4.1-13.8. III. The ultimate blessing and glory of
Israel, 13.9-14.9.
The events recorded in Hosea cover a period of 60 years (Ussher)

[1] {my people}
"My people" is an expression used in the O.T. exclusively of Israel the
nation. It is never used of the patriarchs, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
See Mat. 2.6.

[2] {Israel}
"Israel" in Hosea means the ten tribes forming the northern kingdom as
distinguished from "Judah" (the tribes of Judah and Benjamin) forming the
southern kingdom which adhered to the Davidic family. (See)
# 1Ki 12:1-21
The promise of verse 10 awaits fulfilment. See "Israel"
# Ge 12:2,3 Ro 11:26

[1] {She is not my wife}
That Israel is the wife of Jehovah (see vs. 16-23), now disowned but yet
to be restored, is the clear teaching of the passages. This relationship is
not to be confounded with that of the Church of Christ.
# Joh 3:29
refs.
In the mystery of the Divine tri-unity both are true. The N.T. speaks of
the Church as a virgin espoused to one husband
# 2Co 11:1,2
which could never be said of an adulterous wife, restored in grace.
Israel is, then, to be the restored and forgiven wife of Jehovah,
the Church the virgin wife of the Lamb
# Joh 3:29 Re 19:6-8
Israel Jehovah's earthly wife
# Ho 2:23
the Church the Lamb's heavenly bride.
