Context
The Lord Recalls Israel’s Earlier Faithfulness
2:1 The Lord spoke to me. He said :
2:2 “Go and declare in the hearing of the people of Jerusalem : ‘This is what the Lord says : “I have fond memories of you, how devoted you were to me in your early years . I remember how you loved me like a new bride ; you followed me through the wilderness , through a land that had never been planted .
2:3 Israel was set apart to the Lord ; they were like the first fruits of a harvest to him. All who tried to devour them were punished ; disaster came upon them,” says the Lord .’”
