Zechariah 10:10

8 I will ^awhistle for them and gather them,
For I will redeem them;
^bAnd they shall increase as they once increased.

9 “I^a will sow them among the peoples,
And they shall ^bremember Me in far countries;
They shall live, together with their children,
And they shall return.

10 ^aI will also bring them back from the land of Egypt,
And gather them from Assyria.
I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon,
^bUntil no more room is found for them.

11 ^aHe shall pass through the sea with affliction,
And strike the waves of the sea:
All the depths of¹ the River shall dry up.
Then ^bthe pride of Assyria shall be brought down,
And ^cthe scepter of Egypt shall depart.

12 “So I will strengthen them in the Lord,
And ^athey shall walk up and down in His name,”
Says the Lord.

Egypt . . . Assyria—the former the first, the latter among the last of Israel's oppressors (or representing the four great world kingdoms, of which it was the first): types of the present universal dispersion, Egypt being south, Assyria north, opposite ends of the compass. MAURER conjectures that many Israelites fled to "Egypt" on the invasion of Tiglath-pileser. But Isaiah 11:11 and this passage rather accord with the view of the future restoration.

Gilead . . . Lebanon—The whole of the Holy Land is described by two of its boundaries, the eastern ("Gilead" beyond Jordan) and the northern ("Lebanon").

place shall not be found for them—that is, there shall not be room enough for them through their numbers (Isaiah 49:20; Isaiah 54:3).
