This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

my people will come when thus I call to them.



And gather them; this shall be enough to bring them together; or it shall be done as soon as spoke, so soon as I whistle they shall return.



I have redeemed them; I have been at the care and charge of redeeming, I raised Cyrus to do it; I bestowed all nations and kingdoms on him, and afterwards on Darius Hystaspes, to do this, to restore my exiles, to replant Judah, to rebuild the city and temple; and I will do this also, which is much less, I will, as a shepherd with his pastoral whistle, call them in.



They shall increase as they have increased; a promise made Jer_33:22, and Eze_36:1,11,37,38, which see.
