I will purge out from among you the rebels and those who transgress against Me; I will bring them out of the land where they sojourn, but they shall not enter the land of Israel. The final expulsion of the incorrigibly rebellious establishes that not all Israel will return to the promised land. Those who refuse covenant will be permanently excluded from covenant blessing. The judgment accomplishes a final separation between the faithful remnant and those who reject God's rule.
