# allure

## In Jewish tradition

In Hosea, God gently draws Israel back into the wilderness to speak tenderly to her, as when she first left Egypt. In Job, it means leading someone out of trouble.

**Interpretation.** Tradition reads Hosea's verse as God's loving call to return, with the wilderness as a place of new beginnings.
