1 He reproves Israel for oppression,4 for idolatry,6 and for their incorrigibleness. ye kine.By the "kine of Bashan," some understand the proud, luxurious matrons of Israel; but it is probable the prophet speaks catachrestically, and means the wealthy, effeminate, and profligate rulers and nobles of Samaria.
