Matthew Poole and continuators on Zechariah 10:8

8 I will hisse for them , and gather them for I have redeemed them : and they shall increase as they have increased .

Though they are now scattered far off I will cause them to return, I will whistle, as a Shepherd, and they, as scattered Sheep, shall run with speed back to the flock, I called their Enemies so once and they came, Isa. 5.26. and 7.18, 19, and my people will come when thus I call to 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 been at the care and charge of Redeeming, I raised Cyrus to do it, I bestow'd all Nations and Kingdoms on him, and afterwards on Darius Hystaspis to do this, to restore my exiles, to replant Iudah, 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.

A promise made by Ier. 33.22. and Ezek. 36.10, 11, 37, 38. which see.
