Key-word, “Remnant;” Key-verse, 1:4, 3:13.-This “compendium of all prophecy,” though addressed to Judah and Jerusalem, is a survey of Jehovah’s universal government. The whole earth is the theater where the Judge of all displays the grandeur of law and the glory of love. From every quarter, nations are chosen as examples of his just judgment (2:4-15). A double “remnant” is spoken of: a remnant of Baal that shall not escape; a remnant of Israel that shall survive even judgment. [p. 83] HBS 41.3
