This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Therefore; since my name, my power, and justice are vindicated, and the heathen see it was Israel’s iniquity brought them into captivity, and Israel knows this too.



Now; from this time of Gog’s overthrow. Jacob; the seed of Jacob, here called by their father’s name.



Have mercy: this reducing captive Jews is mere mercy: it is very true by sin they deserved to be made captives, and it is as true they never did or could deserve a deliverance from captivity; it was not extremity of justice that so punished, but it was the riches of mercy that so pardoned and redeemed.



Upon the whole house of Israel; on the ten tribes with the two. And all this in zeal



for my holy name, by which I am engaged to be their God.
