Hosea 1:10

And the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, that is without measure, and shall not be numbered. *And it shall be in the place where it shall be said to them: You are not my people: it shall be said to them: Ye are the sons of the living God.

Romans 9:26.

The number, etc., viz., of the true Israelites, the children of the Church of Christ. (Challoner) --- This is the primary sense, Romans 9:25. Yet the Israelites are here also assured of their return from captivity. (Calmet) --- God. Among many sinners, some are chosen. (Worthington)
