Wesley's Notes

31:39 The line - That is, it shall be built round about upon its old foundations.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

39. measuring-line-(Eze 40:8; Zec 2:1).

Gareb-from a Hebrew root, "to scrape"; Syriac, "leprosy"; the locality outside of the city, to which lepers were removed.

Goath-from a root, "to toil," referring to the toilsome ascent there: outside of the city of David, towards the southwest, as Gareb was northwest [Junius].

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

31:35-40 As surely as the heavenly bodies will continue their settled course, according to the will of their Creator, to the end of time, and as the raging sea obeys him, so surely will the Jews be continued a separate people. Words can scarcely set forth more strongly the restoration of Israel. The rebuilding of Jerusalem, and its enlargement and establishment, shall be an earnest of the great things God will do for the gospel church. The personal happiness of every true believer, as well as the future restoration of Israel, is secured by promise, covenant, and oath. This Divine love passes knowledge; and to those who take hold upon it, every present mercy is an earnest of salvation.


Zechariah 2:1 Then I lifted up my eyes and looked, and behold, there was a man with a measuring line in his hand. (NASB ©1995)
