Hosea 13:6

“According to their pasture, so were they filled, etc.] When they came into the land of Canaan, which was a land flowing with milk and honey, they were like a flock of sheep brought from short commons to a good pasture; and there they tilled themselves to the fail, and indulged to luxury and excess, pampered themselves, and made provision for the flesh to fulfil its lusts, and became carnal and sensual: they were filled, and their hearts were exalted: they were elated with their plenty, and grew proud and haughty, and attributed their fulness not to the goodness of God, but to their own excellency and merit; and put their trust and confidence in their affluence, and not in the Lord; and…”

“Image from cattle, waxing wanton in abundant pasture (compare Hos 2:5, Hos 2:8; Deu 32:13-15). In proportion as I fed them to the full, they were so satiated that "their heart was exalted"; a sad contrast to the time when, by God's blessing, Ephraim truly "exalted himself in Israel" (Hos 13:1). therefore have they forgotten me--the very reason why men should remember God (namely, prosperity, which comes from Him) is the cause often of their forgetting Him. God had warned them of this danger (Deu 6:11-12).”

“According to their pasture, so were they filled - o: “He implies that their way of being ‘filled’ was neither good nor praiseworthy, in that he says, ‘they were filled according to their pastures.’ What or of what kind were these “their pastures?” What they longed for, what they murmured for, and spoke evil of God. For instance, when they said, ‘who wil give us flesh to eat? We remember the flesh which we did eat in Egypt freely. Our soul is dried up, because our eyes see nothing but this manna’ Numbers 11:4-6. Since they desired such things in such wise, and, desiring, were filled with them to loathing, well are they called ‘their pastures.’ For they sought God, not for Himself, but for…”

“Their pasture - When they were come into Canaan, and had abundance of all things, they ran into luxury. Was exalted - They grew proud. Hosea 13:7”

“13:6 you became proud and forgot me: They relied not on the Lord for security, but on their kings, armies, and economic prosperity (see 2:13).”

“to: Hos 10:1; Deu 8:12-14, Deu 32:13-15; Neh 9:25, Neh 9:26, Neh 9:35; Jer 2:31 therefore: Hos 8:4; Deu 6:10-12, Deu 32:18; Psa 10:4; Isa 17:10; Jer 2:32 Hosea 13:7”

“But prosperity made Israel proud, so that it forgot its God. Hos 13:6. "As they had their pasture, they became full; they became full, and their heart was lifted up: therefore have they forgotten me." This reproof is taken almost word for word from Deu 8:11. (cf. Deu 31:20; Deu 32:15.). כּמרעיתם, answering to their pasture, i.e., because they had such good pasture in the land given them by the Lord. The very thing of which Moses warned the people in Deu 8:11 has come to pass. Therefore are the threats of the law against the rebellious fulfilled upon them. Hosea 13:7”
