Does God permit to marry a prostitute?

sermonindex Nov 28, 2007

Hosea 1:2 The beginning of the word of the LORD by Hosea. And the LORD
said to Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of whoredoms and
children of whoredoms: for the land hath committed great
whoredom, departing from the LORD.
1:3 So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; which
conceived, and bare him a son.

Gomer neither a wife to anyone nor concubine , but i believe a prostitute?

God commanded this as a sign to His people. Hosea represented God and His faithfulness and Gomer represented the people. The whole book of Hosea is a picture of God's love for a faithless people and how He is always ready to forgive the repentent heart.
