bring again the captivity of Jacob

on Ezekiel 39:25-29

The chapter turns from judgment to promise in one sentence, now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, the same named people the dry bones vision has already promised in the chapter before this one. The shame borne and the trespasses confessed come first, and the gathering from the nations follows, mercy answering honest guilt rather than erasing it.

Here, as there, it is foretold that God will bring this enemy from the north parts, as formerly the Chaldeans were fetched from the north, Jer. i.

Now God will have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, (1.) Because it is time for him to stand up for his own glory, which suffers in their sufferings: Now will I be jealous for my holy name, that that may no longer be reproached. (2.) Because now they repent of their sins: They have borne their shame, and all their trespasses.
After that they have borne their shame,....
