As Caleb inherited the same land which his feet trod on (Deuteronomy 1:36; Joshua 14:9), so Messiah and His saints shall inherit the renovated earth which once they trod while defiled by the enemy (Isaiah 34:4; Isaiah 51:16; Isaiah 66:22; Ezekiel 21:27; Psalms 2:8; Psalms 37:11; II Peter 3:13; Hebrews 12:26-28 Revelation 21:1).
not be remembered—See on Isaiah 65:16, note on "troubles"; the words here answer to "the former . . . forgotten," etc. The former sorrows of the earth, under the fall, shall be so far from recurring, that their very remembrance shall be obliterated by the many mercies I will bestow on the new earth (Rev. 21:4-27).
