God Will Restore Israel

14 Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
15 “Son of man, your brethren, your relatives, your countrymen, and all the house of Israel in its entirety, are those about whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, ‘Get far away from the Lord; this land has been given to us as a possession.’
16 Therefore say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Although I have cast them far off among the Gentiles, and although I have scattered them among the countries, ayet I shall be a little sanctuary for them in the countries where they have gone.” ’  
17 Therefore say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: a“I will gather you from the peoples, assemble you from the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.” ’  
18 And they will go there, and they will take away all its adetestable things and all its abominations from there.  
19 Then aI will give them one heart, and I will put ba new spirit within them, and take cthe stony heart out of their flesh, and give them a heart of flesh,

Ezekiel 11:16

Say - In vindication of them. Although - The obstinate Jews at Jerusalem will call them apostates; but I the Lord sent them thither, and will own them there. Scattered - Dispersed them in many countries which are under the king of Babylon: yet they are dear to me. A little sanctuary - A little one in opposition to that great temple at Jerusalem. To him they shall flee, and in him they shall be safe, as he was that took hold on the horns of the altar. And they shall have such communion with God in the land of their captivity, as it was thought could be had no where but in the temple.
