Hosea 14:2 means return .... 1948

 Hosea 14:2 


Hosea 14:2 
"שׁ֚וּבָה יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל עַ֖ד יְהֹוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֑יךָ כִּ֥י כָשַׁ֖לְתָּ בַּעֲוֺנֶֽךָ׃" = 1948 (Hebrew Gematria)

Shabbat Shuvah ("Sabbath [of] Return" שבת שובה) refers to the Shabbat that occurs during the Ten Days of Repentance between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Only one Shabbat can occur between these dates.

 Shabbat is named after the 1st word of the Haftarah (Hosea 14:2-10) and literally means "Return!"
