In the Book of Hosea, we get some disturbing images. Israel was under attack, and would soon become a conquered people. Hosea was one of the prophets that were trying to get the people to understand what was happening.

But the book of Hosea was written long after the events it speaks of, and the intention was to try to understand what had happened. And part of what happened was terrible. Hosea doesn't leave out those gory details.

The thing though is that the perpetrators of those actions wasn't God, but the Assyrians.
