Chapter 4
V2-6 The day of the Lord, though a punishment for the wicked, will a salvation to the saved remnant. Jews always had problem with promise to Abraham, and God wiping them out for their sin. The remnant of the faithful few solved this.
v.5-6 God's all encompassing, unconditional love for these people. God's protections towards his people Ex 13:21-22 "By day the Lord went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day or night. Neither the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire by night left its place in front of the people." (Ex 14:19-20) It happened to Israel.
It shows his intention to stand by his children today. It is never God who moves away-- always us.
