left in Zion—equivalent to the "escaped of Israel" (Isaiah 4:2).
shall be called—shall be (Isaiah 9:6).
holy— (Isaiah 52:1; Isaiah 60:21; Revelation 21:27).
written—in the book of life, antitypically (Philippians 4:3; Revelation 3:5; Revelation 17:8). Primarily, in the register kept of Israel's families and tribes.
living—not "blotted out" from the registry, as dead; but written there as among the "escaped of Israel" (Daniel 12:1; Ezekiel 13:9). To the elect of Israel, rather than the saved in general, the special reference is here (Joel 3:17).
