WHY JEHOVAH CALLED HIMSELF A HUSBANDLY OWNER OF THE ISRAELITE NATION
ISAIAH . 54 : 5
O, Israelites for Jehovah your Grand Maker is your husbandly Owner
Jehovah saved you from shame, as His respected wife He gave you honour
Since to the Israelites Jehovah gave this order to a husband that he must care for his family
So Jehovah represented Himself as a caring husband of the Israelites symbolically
That the Israelites can know in Jehovah eye how precious they are
Since through His law in this dark lawless world Jehovah makes the Israelites a bright star
As a woman is no longer a wife of a chaste husband because of her fornication
Same when the Israelites involved in false worship they were no longer Jehovah’s nation
But when the Israelites repented and accepted Jehovah as their Sovereign Lord
As a husband saves his wife,Jehovah saved the Israelites from pagan nation’s sword
Jehovah set-up a respectful impression for faithful wife and husband’s relationship
Jehovah considers respectful those who are pure in His worship
Jehovah commanded to a husband that he guide his family according to His regulation
Jehovah is a husbandly Owner means that He has the right to guide His chosen nation
As a man chose a woman as his wife to produce to himself a generation
So Jehovah chose the Israelites to produce for Himself a God fearing nation
In the holy Bible the woman who lived her life under one husband’s control was honourable
The faithful Israelites in their pure worship of Jehovah,they were honourable and acceptable
