Not to mention, the whole covenant with Israel was basically prosperity gospel written on the scale of nation states- the promise was that as long as Israel obeyed and followed the Law, then god would bless them above all other nations.

The trouble was that Israel- as a nation- was extremely...uh... fickle. (see all the exiles and shit that happens because supposedly god is done with their shit.) it's mostly just an explanation why a supposedly blessed nation woulld be yeeted into exile- and was written near the end of the exilic period (pretty much as they were going home?)
