“God’s Book of Remembrance.” In the final dispute of chapter 3, the people accuse God and say it is vain to serve Him. They observe wicked, prideful people succeeding in life, and think God does nothing. God responds with a short story about the faithful remnant in Israel, people who feared the Lord and spoke about Him to others and about how to honour and serve Him. God orders that a Book of Remembrance be written for these people so that they can read the scroll and remember God’s character and think on His name. This Book is a type of the Scriptures which point us to the past to remember what God has done in order to inspire faithfulness and hope for a future in which God will protect and gather us as His precious jewels, safe from coming judgment.
