Kaisipang Hudyo sa Oseas 11:10: Guide for the Perplexed

אַחֲרֵ֧י יְהוָ֛ה יֵלְכ֖וּ כְּאַרְיֵ֣ה יִשְׁאָ֑ג כִּֽי־ה֣וּא יִשְׁאַ֔ג וְיֶחֶרְד֥וּ בָנִ֖ים מִיָּֽם׃

Susunod sila sa Walang-Hanggan, na aatungal na gaya ng leon; sapagkat Siya ay aatungal, at ang mga anak ay magmamadaling darating mula sa kanluran.

Guide for the Perplexed

The term includes also the idea of following a thing and of conforming with the moral principles of some other being. Comp. “Ye shall walk after (aḥare) the Lord, your God” (Deut. 13:5); “They shall walk after (aḥare) the Lord” (Hos. 11:10), i.e., follow His will, walk in the way of His actions, and imitate His virtues: “He walked after (aḥare) the commandment” (ib. v.11). In this sense the word occurs in Exodus 33:20, “And thou shalt see my back” (aḥorai); thou shalt perceive that which follows me, is similar to me, and is the result of my will, i.e., all things created by me, as will be explained in the course of this treatise.
