Description

Jesus cites Hos 6:6, “I desire mercy not sacrifice”, in his response to the Pharisees’ question in 9:10-13 and their objection in 12:1-8. The parallel accounts in the Gospel of Mark (2:13-17 and 2:23-28) and Luke (5:27-32 and 6:1-5) omit this use of Hos 6:6. Jesus’s use of Hos 6:6 in Matt 9:13 would have been part of Jesus’s teaching that Matthew first heard as a disciple of Jesus. Not only is it plausible that Matthew would have remembered and included this citation in his Gospel, Jesus’s use of Hos 6:6 may have been significant in the shaping of Matthew’s Gospel and his use of Scripture. A grammatical-historical and literary-critical approach that pays careful attention to the placement of Matt 9:9-13 and 12:1-8 in the flow of Matthew’s narrative, the logic of Jesus’s argument in these pericopes, and the context of Hos 6:6 in the book of Hosea and salvation history will help explain the meaning and significance of Jesus’s use of Hos 6:6. This approach will demonstrate that Jesus uses Hos 6:6 typologically in Matt 9:13 and salvation-historically in Matt 12:7. The significance of this use of Hos 6:6 may be evident in some of the unique aspects of Matthew’s Gospel—Matthew’s exception for divorce in the case of adultery, the structure of the narrative account of Jesus’s miracles in Matt 8-9, and the focus on Israel in the ministry of Jesus and his disciples. Jesus’s use of Hos 6:6 may have also served as a model for Matthew’s own use of Hos 11:1 in Matt 2:15.
