Answer Details
Prophet Hosea named his second child Not Pitied because God would no more pity the "house of Israel." In the book of Hosea in the Old Testament, Hosea was instructed by God to marry a promiscuous woman as a representation of how Israel had been unfaithful to Him by worshipping idols and turning away from His commands. Hosea's children were given symbolic names as a message to the people of Israel. The second child, whose name was Lo-Ruhamah (meaning "not pitied"), symbolized that God would no longer have pity on the house of Israel because of their continued disobedience.
