GOD, Kindness, and His People

Plummer says "kindness" refers to the "sympathetic kindliness or sweetness of temper which puts others at their ease, and shrinks from giving pain."

Jehovah God treated the nation of Israel with "gentle (kind) cords, with bands of love" (Hosea 11:4).

Jehovah God demonstrates His kindness toward us in Jesus Christ: "...that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus" (Ephesians 2:7; NKJV).
