"And will again choose Jerusalem"
Text: Zechariah 2:12
WHO WOULD POSSESS ISRAEL?
Every conqueror likes to feel that they “possess” the nations they conquered. The Assyrians felt they possessed Israel. The Babylonians felt that they possessed Judah!
THE REAL POSSESSOR OF THE LAND
The LORD understood how people felt. He wanted to assure His people that He would possess Judah!
“And the LORD will take possession of Judah
as His inheritance in the Holy Land,
and will again choose Jerusalem.
Be silent, all flesh, before the LORD,
for He is aroused from His holy habitation!”
Zechariah 2:12-13
