Right from the time of Noah to the time of the Christ, God had made a lot of promises to His children, the top promise on the list being an assured blessing to those who are obedient to Him. If you take a closer look at some of the Bible restoration promises that happened, you will realize that God was genuine about His promises to humankind. God still make promises to people until this day.
He cursed the womb of Eve, and said that the woman would be subjective to her husband. He cursed man and said that he would sweat all his life to get food to eat. You can imagine that just after He created life, the great King proclaimed death to the world, and since then, sin entered the world and the good relationship between God and man broke.
You already know the rest of the history. But the most interesting thing about God is that He always has a second change, you could say He is a supreme being of second though, abounding in love, kind and always forgiving. He decided that even after destroying first generation with a massive flood that has never been on earth before, he would create a new world by raising a new generation from Noah.
The Good Lord was okay with this rebellion though. After all, it was difficult for any person to love by the law and at the same time live right before the sight of God for the simple reason that it was difficult to live by the law. And because human beings are weak and subject to sinning, there had to be a better way to connect human beings with God.
The case of the children of Israel in exile is quite a perfect way that shows the restorative nature of God. God having seen the evil done to His children in Egypt decided that the best way to rescue them would be to send them a savior, Moses. With the help of God Moses was able to take the children of Israel out of Egypt, the exodus to the promises land.
Samson was quite a man of Godly strength, and though he messed up by mixing his mission with pleasures of the woman Delilah, God used him to protect His people. At this time, God restored peace to the His children, and took life away from those who made the world difficult for His children at the time. From that time henceforth, God has used David, Ezekiel, Daniel, Jeremiah and other prophets to bring restoration to the world.
The Biblical promise of the restoration of the relationship between God and man was fulfilled at the exact time Jesus rose from the dead. God has always wanted to have a good relationship with all people. This is a clear indication that the death of Christ at the place of Skull was not for granted.
After the death and resurrection of Jesus, the restoration of the relationship between God and man happened. From this time onwards, man and God would be friends, even unto the end of time.
