That the house of Israel may go no more astray from me, neither be polluted any more with all their transgressions; but that they may be my people, and I may be their God, saith the Lord GOD.
That the house of Israel may go no more astray from me. Love was the spring of God's very judgments on His people who were incurable by any other process. That they may be my people, and I may be their God - (Ezekiel 11:20; Ezekiel 37:27).
