Jeremiah31:4
4. I will build ... thou shalt be built--The combination of the active and passive to express the same fact implies the infallible certainty of its accomplishment. "Build," that is, establish in prosperity (Jr 33:7).
adorned with ... tabrets--(1Sa 18:6). Or, "adorn thyself with thy timbrels"; used by damsels on occasions of public rejoicings (Ex 15:20; Jud 11:34). Israel had cast away all instruments of joy in her exile (Psa 137:4).
dances--holy joy, not carnal mirth.
