Hosea 6:2 - George - 01-04-2019
Hosea 6:2
He will revive us from the two days, on the third day He will set us up, and we will live before Him.
Rashi's comments:
He will revive us from the two days: He will strengthen us from the two retributions which have passed over us from the two sanctuaries that were destroyed.
on the third day: With the construction of the third Temple, He will set us up.
from the two days: From the two times that have passed over us.
on the third day: In the third time.
on the third day: With the construction of the third Temple, He will set us up.
from the two days: From the two times that have passed over us.
on the third day: In the third time.
I don't understand Rashi's comments.
What does Judaism teach about this verse?
Thank you.

You should have enough acquaintance with Judaism at this point to know that a commentary does not speak for all Jewish voices – even one as revered as Rashi’s.
Rash is giving a non-literal sense to the words, taking them to refer to the three Temples in Jerusalem: two that have been destroyed and one that is yet to come. I don’t think the commentary is absurd. The verse certainly can be interpreted in this way.
Have you read the Ramban’s commentary on Exodus 3 about YHWH going into exile with his people? This is similar.

No, I haven't read it.
I just wanted to make sure Hosea 6:2 was not about the "general resurrection" of the dead.

No, I have not read Ramban's commentary on Exodus 3. I'll look for it.
