Old Testament

Lo-ammi

The symbolic name given to Hosea's son, meaning not my people, representing God's judgment on Israel.

Lo-ammi is the son of the prophet Hosea and Gomer, born as a divine sign to Israel. His name signifies the covenantal rupture between Yahweh and the northern kingdom due to their persistent idolatry. Through this name, God declared that He was no longer their God and they were no longer His people, highlighting the severity of covenant unfaithfulness.
