They will forget their disgrace
The Hebrew word for "forget" is "שָׁכַח" (shakach), which implies a complete removal from memory. In the context of Israel's history, disgrace often refers to the shame associated with idolatry and rebellion against God. This phrase suggests a divine act of grace, where God not only forgives but also heals the memories of past failures. Theologically, this points to the transformative power of God's forgiveness, which not only absolves sin but also restores dignity.

and all the treachery they committed against Me
"Treachery" in Hebrew is "מַעַל" (ma'al), indicating betrayal or unfaithfulness. Historically, Israel's treachery involved turning to other gods and breaking the covenant with Yahweh. This phrase underscores the gravity of their sin, yet it is juxtaposed with the promise of forgiveness. It highlights God's enduring faithfulness despite human infidelity, a theme prevalent throughout the prophetic books.

when they dwell securely in their land
The word "securely" comes from the Hebrew "בֶּטַח" (betach), meaning safety or confidence. This security is not merely physical but also spiritual, reflecting a restored relationship with God. The promise of dwelling securely in the land is reminiscent of the covenantal blessings promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. It signifies a return to the ideal state of peace and prosperity under God's protection.

with no one to frighten them
The absence of fear is a significant promise, especially considering Israel's history of invasions and exile. The phrase suggests a future time of peace and divine protection, aligning with eschatological visions found in other prophetic writings. It points to a messianic hope where God's people live in harmony, free from external threats. This assurance of safety is a testament to God's sovereignty and His ultimate plan for redemption and restoration.

Verse 26. - After they have borne their shame (comp. Ezekiel 16:52, 54; Ezekiel 32:24, 30; Ezekiel 34:29; Ezekiel 36:6). The captivity of Israel would not be brought back until her people had been thoroughly chastised for their iniquities, and that chastisement had wrought in them a spirit of penitence and a disposition towards obedience. Then should Jehovah interpose for their deliver-ante by gathering them out of their enemies' lands and leading them back to their own land; and these two experiences, the Captivity and the Restoration, the driving out and the bringing in, should complete their conversion to Jehovah, and secure their perpetual enjoyment of Jehovah's favor.
