The narrator tells us that god tells them,...lol...that he only abandoned them for a little while, and would pull them back in. Further, that god did so in a surge of anger, hiding his face. That it made god feel like he'd returned to the days of noah, and that just as then, he feels bad and promises never to do it again. I particularly like this part of his ensuing promise.
Quote:Afflicted city, lashed by storms and not comforted, I will rebuild you with stones of turquoise, your foundations with lapis lazuli. I will make your battlements of rubies, your gates of sparkling jewels, and all your walls of precious stones. All your children will be taught by the LORD, and great will be their peace. In righteousness you will be established: Tyranny will be far from you; you will have nothing to fear. Terror will be far removed; it will not come near you. If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing; whoever attacks you will surrender to you.
...but I'm sure he was talking about you, and your deeply interesting fixation on being someones literal wife, and a god.

This is the situation of mankind. Being "rejected" by her husband. Because mankind is not able to be the Wife. They have to be created to be that. But to be created to be that means a subjection to the Creator God to do it. And mankind in their intellect and pride has the problem to accept this.
Through all the ages up to now mankind has been drawn in by God. To arrive at the moment where they can really allow God to do this. To create for Himself the Perfect Wife. Likened unto a "city". Which is some symbolic way of helping mankind to understand what God actually has in mind for them.

This is of course where we are now. Where these words are accepted by the Adult Children of God what God wants to do with them and for them to be that City. As it is not to God about having a "real city". But a Wife. As God can be satisfied with nothing less then creating everything that is symbolic said to be part of a "city" in His Wife. And the Wife of God should also not settle for anything less. Just allow the Creator God with all the Abilities in His Power to create This Magnificent Wife for Him. As it is not about a "city". But about the Person being that "city". And this is the Child being transformed to be His Wife. That "city" created from everything that is mentioned there.
We are the symbolic the Light and the "city".
Mat. 5
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
God will write on us the Name of His City.
Revelation 3
12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.
This "city" is His Wife.
Rev. 21
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
And you will of course realize that I am not special. I have just given myself for this creation. To be the witness to all of God's Children what their future is as a Wife of God. As it is not just for me. But for everybody willing to venture into this situation. To allow God to create according to His Love a Masterpiece from everyone able to give Himself.
Jeremiah 18
3 Then I went down to the potter’s house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels.*n1
4 And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.*n2*n3
5 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
6 O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the Lord. Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.
7 At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it;
8 If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.
9 And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;
