What does the Bible say about God gathering the scattered?

In the book of Hosea, the Lord declares that although He will scatter His people due to their idolatry, He will also gather them back again, highlighting a message of hope and redemption. This theme of gathering the scattered is a cornerstone of God's redemptive purpose, ultimately culminating in the coming of Christ, who gathers His elect from all nations. In Romans 9 and 1 Peter 2, this gathering is further articulated, revealing God's mercy in uniting both Jews and Gentiles into one body through Christ, the head of the Church.
