Heritage of Israel and its threefold purpose
The lesson notes Israel's exile as part of God's plan with three aims: to preserve divine truth, to enable the coming Redeemer, and to witness God to other nations. It cites Israel as the conduit for Scripture, Jesus, and a model of obedience, warning that failure to witness brings judgment. It also envisions future universal worship under Christ and highlights Israel's enduring contributions and warnings for today.
