Zechariah2:12

12 And the LORD shall inherit Judah his portion in the holy land , and shall choose Jerusalem again .

Jehovah, the God of Abraham, and of his seed, who had cast off Judah, and seem'd to quit his claim in his antient inheritance, by a disseism of 70 years.

Claim, recover, possess and delight, as a man doth in his paternal inheritance,

All his Israel, this Tribe mentioned, but all the rest included.

His Treasure and peculiar people; his lot and part.

Upon, Heb. holy, not by any inherent holiness, but holy and selected, and set apart for a holy people consecrated to God.

The Lord will as of old choose Ierusalem for his seat.

Marginal references: chap. 1.17.
