'Promiscuous' in the Bible
When the Lord first spoke to Hosea, He said this to him:Go and marry a promiscuous wifeand have children of promiscuity,for the land is committing blatant acts of promiscuityby abandoning the Lord.
Rebuke your mother; rebuke her.For she is not My wife and I am not her husband.Let her remove the promiscuous look from her faceand her adultery from between her breasts.
Yes, their mother is promiscuous;she conceived them and acted shamefully.For she thought, “I will go after my lovers,the men who give me my food and water,my wool and flax, my oil and drink.”
I said to her, “You must live with me many days. Don’t be promiscuous or belong to any man, and I will act the same way toward you.”
They will eat but not be satisfied;they will be promiscuous but not multiply.For they have abandoned their devotion to the Lord.
