Commentaries:
God says that He, "who scattered Israel," will also gather it "as a shepherd does his flock." He asks that His message be declared "in the isles afar off." This is not Crete or even Cyprus or Malta. The islands must be far away, and northwest of Jerusalem. Here again, God says He will gather Israel from "the isles afar off." Note the plural, isles.
