The blessings of Christ's kingdom Then you will live in the land that I gave your forefathers; This phrase refers to the covenant promise God made to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, promising them the land of Canaan as an everlasting possession (Genesis 12:7, 15:18-21).

Therefore the promise of earthly restoration must yet be made, and must in due time be literally fulfilled.Verses 28-31 describe the results which should follow in Israel's experience when God should have thus gathered, cleansed, and renewed them. They should then have (1) permanent occupation of the land (ver. 28); (2) covenant relationship with God as his people (ver. 28); (3) protection against future lapsing into idolatry and immorality (ver. 29); . . .
