Verse 2 made so much more sence to me once I looked up the term 'winnower'. It is when they throw the wheat in the air and let the wind blow away the impurities. I then saw God explaining he wouldn't just destroy the country with his people in it. His own, the wheat, would he keep and the impurity would be blown away.
