Yes, the two days in Hosea 6:2 prophetically represent 2,000 years, pointing to Israel's revival and then the third-day kingdom.
Les Feldick teaches that in Scripture a day is often viewed as a thousand years. Since the cross, about two thousand years have passed, matching the two days, and the third day is the coming millennial kingdom when Israel will live in God's sight.
Hosea 6:2 — This is the verse in question, showing God's promise to revive Israel after two days and raise them up on the third.
In Hosea 6:2, the prophet declares: "After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight." The immediate context is Israel's confession: "Come, and let us return unto the LORD: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up" (Hosea 6:1). The nation acknowledges that God has torn and smitten them, but they express confidence that He will heal and bind them up. The two days and the third day, therefore, are a prophetic picture of Israel's chastisement and promised restoration.
Les Feldick teaches that the "two days" in Hosea 6:2 point to the two thousand years that have elapsed since Israel rejected and crucified the King. Christ, in resurrection power, returned to glory, and Israel has been dispersed, chastised, and under the boot of Gentile armies for almost two thousand years. Just as the day is as a thousand years in Scripture, these two days represent the long period of Israel's discipline. After these two prophetic days, God will revive the nation. The "third day" is the millennial kingdom, when Israel will be raised up and live in His sight. Les sees the modern return of the Jews to their homeland and the rebirth of Israel as evidence that this revival is beginning to take place, leading closer to the kingdom when the King will rule from Jerusalem.
Les Feldick explains that Israel has been under God's chastisement and discipline for almost two thousand years since the cross. He points to Israel's rejection and crucifixion of the King, after which the Lord went back to glory. In Hosea 6:1, Israel speaks of returning to the Lord, acknowledging that He has torn and smitten them but will also heal and bind them up. Les identifies these two days as the long period of dispersion and suffering, which matches the two thousand years of the church age that the Old Testament prophets did not foresee.
Les Feldick teaches that the third day is the kingdom, the millennium. He says, "In the third day, He will raise us up, and we shall live in His sight." The third thousand years is the coming kingdom age when Israel will be restored nationally and live in God's sight. This ties to the larger prophetic picture of Christ returning to set up His kingdom and rule from Jerusalem. Les connects this to the Jewish remnant that will see Christ at His second coming and experience the kingdom in its fullness.
Les Feldick explains that the Old Testament prophets did not see the break of two thousand years between Christ's first coming and His second coming. In the prophetic writings, the first half of the prophecies were fulfilled at His first coming, and the second half are still waiting. The people in the Old Testament, and even the disciples, did not know about the long age of grace. Only Jesus could stop at the appropriate place in reading prophecies. The two days of Hosea represent this hidden interval of two thousand years that is now being revealed in history.
Israel's Chastening and God's Faithfulness
Les teaches that God has continually chastened Israel but never given up on them, providing the context for His promise to revive them.
Two Days as Two Thousand Years
Les explicitly equates the two days of Hosea 6:2 with 2,000 years, after which God will revive Israel, and the third day is the kingdom.
Two Days and the Third Millennium
Les shows that the two days since the cross are 2,000 years and the third day is the millennial kingdom, fitting Israel's national resurrection.
Israel's Affliction Leading to Revival
Les shows Israel acknowledging in Hosea 6:1 that God has torn and smitten them and that He will heal and bind them up after nearly 2,000 years.
Hosea's Pronouns Refer to Israel
Les clarifies that the pronouns in Hosea 6:1 refer to the nation of Israel, which has been smitten and will be bound up.
Israel's Salvation at Christ's Return
Les connects the nation of Israel's salvation to the moment they see Christ returning as King of Kings, which follows the tribulation.
Old Testament Prophets Saw No 2,000-Year Gap
Les explains that Old Testament prophecy gives no hint of a 2,000-year break, which is why the two days of Hosea were not understood beforehand.
The Two Thousand Years Age of Grace
Les places the current 2,000-year period since Christ's first coming as the hidden time that the Old Testament never mentioned, leading to the kingdom.
Hosea 6:1: Come, and let us return unto the LORD: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up.
This verse sets the scene for Hosea 6:2, showing Israel's confession of God's discipline and promised healing.
Hosea 6:2: After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.
This is the verse in question, giving the precise promise of revival after two days and resurrection on the third day.
Psalm 2:6: Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
Les refers to this verse in the context of Christ being set as King on Zion, which will happen in the millennial kingdom, the third day.
Zechariah 14:4: And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
Les points to Zechariah 14 to show the Lord's return to the Mount of Olives and the establishment of His kingdom.
The two days represent two thousand years, based on the scriptural principle that a day is as a thousand years. They point to the period from Israel's rejection of Christ to the coming revival of the nation.
The third day is the millennial kingdom, the thousand-year reign of Christ. After Israel is revived, they will be raised up and live in God's sight.
Les teaches that after two prophetic days (2,000 years), Israel is being revived, seen in their return to the homeland. The full resurrection to national life comes with the third day, the kingdom.
Les points to the Jews returning to their homeland and Israel becoming an independent state as evidence that God is reviving the nation after the two days of dispersion.
