In Eternity - Israel and Judah in their Own Land

In Eternity we see Israel and Judah dwelling in their own land. They shall dwell in the land that God gave to Jacob (Amos 9:15), where their fathers had dwelt (Gen.13:17, Gen.15:18, Gen.17:19, Gen.28:3-4, Gen.28:13); and they will dwell therein, THEY AND THEIR CHILDREN, AND THEIR CHILDREN’S CHILDREN For Ever, and David shall be their prince FOR EVER (Eze.37:12-25 below).


Eze.37:12 Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.

Eze.37:13 And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves,

Eze.37:14 And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land (Eze.37:21 below): then shall ye know that I the LORD have spoken [it], and performed [it], saith the LORD.

Eze.37:15 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,

Eze.37:16 Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and [for] all the house of Israel his companions:

Eze.37:17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand (Eze.37:19 below).

Eze.37:18 And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou [meanest] by these?

Eze.37:19 Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, [even] with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.

Eze.37:20 And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes.

Eze.37:21 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:

Eze.37:22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel (Gen.13:17, Gen.15:18, Gen.28:3-4, Gen.28:13 above); and one king shall be king to them all (Eze.37:24-25 below): and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all:

Eze.37:23 Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.

Eze.37:24 And David my servant [shall be] king over them (Eze.37:22 above, Eze.37:25 below); and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them (Mal.4:4).

Eze.37:25 And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, [even] they, and their children, and their children's children for ever (Gen.13:17, Gen.15:18, Gen.17:19, Gen.28:3-4, Gen.28:13 above): and my servant David [shall be] their prince FOR EVER.
