HH: One who has it Karl's way is Thomas McComisky in the commentary 
on minor prophets that he edited. He wrote the commentary for Hosea. 
His problem was that he could not identify the two sins. I was told 
that they were the calf idols at Dan and Beersheba.

                                        Yours,
                                        Harold Holmyard
