The book of Hosea gives us a glimpse of who Jesus is in the Old Testament (O.T).

Hosea is the story of a PROPHET commissioned to marry a PROSTITUTE, a symbolic reference to God being faithful in the marriage relationship He has with his people, the Church that has an adulterous relationship with the world. It is an account that visualizes God’s heartache (BROKEN HEART) over his unfaithful people (symbolized by Israel).

 In the article “A physician testifies about the Crucifixion [of Jesus]”, Dr. David writes “Apparently to make doubly sure of death, the legionnaire drove his lance through the fifth interspace between the ribs, upward through the pericardium and into the heart. The 34th verse of the 19th chapter of the Gospel according to St. John reports: “And immediately there came out blood and water.” That is, there was an escape of water fluid from the sac surrounding the heart, giving postmortem evidence that Our Lord died not the usual crucifixion death by suffocation, but of heart failure due to shock and constriction of the heart by fluid in the pericardium.”  You can otherwise say that Jesus died of a Broken Heart.

Hosea 13:14 talks about someone who will ransom his people from death and redeem them from the power of the grave.
14 I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; O grave, I will be thy destruction:

Who is this person referred to as ‘I’ in that prophecy? To find the answer, we need to look at 1 Corinthians 15:55,57 which answers that question that this ‘I’ is the Lord Jesus Christ who gives victory.
55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

In Hosea, Jesus is the faithful one who ransoms us from death and redeems us from the grave, in spite of our unfaithfulness.
