And ye shall know that I am the Lord, &c.] The one only Jehovah, that keeps covenant; performs promises; is faithful to his word; is kind, gracious, and merciful, as well as mighty and powerful; and all this they shall experimentally know, and publicly own and acknowledge: when I shall bring you into the land of Israel; which will be the Lord’s doing; his hand and his power will be signally seen in it; this is one of the places in prophecy, which clearly asserts that the Jews, when converted, shall be brought into their own land again: into the country for the which I lifted up mine hand, to give it to your fathers; that is, which he swore he would give unto them.
