But on Mount Zion The phrase "Mount Zion" refers to the hill in Jerusalem that has profound theological significance throughout the Bible. In Hebrew, "Zion" (צִיּוֹן, Tziyon) is often synonymous with the city of Jerusalem itself, representing the spiritual center of God's kingdom. Historically, Mount Zion was the site of the Jebusite fortress captured by King David, and it became the location of the Temple built by Solomon. In prophetic literature, Zion symbolizes the place where God dwells with His people, a place of divine presence and ultimate redemption. This phrase sets the stage for a message of hope and restoration, indicating that despite the surrounding turmoil, God's plan for His people will be fulfilled. there will be deliverance and it will be holy and the house of Jacob will reclaim their possession (17) Deliverance.--Better, as in margin, the fugitives of Israel who have survived the recent calamity. This is clear from Isaiah 10:20, where pheleytah is in parallelism with shear=remnant, as well as Joel 2:32; Hebrews 3:5, where it is parallel to seridim, also remnant.

Once desecrated by the idolatrous revelry of the Edomites and the other nations, now the seat of Jehovah (Joel 3:17) and the kingdom. Deliverance (peletah); Septuagint, σωτηρία. Abstract for concrete, and to be rendered, "those that escape," or "those that are saved;" i.e. a remnant that shall escape destruction (comp. Joel 2:32; Amos 9:8). There shall be holiness; rather, it (Mount Zion) shall be holy; so Septuagint, καὶ ἔσται ἄγιον: Hebrew, kodesh, "a sanctuary," where the heathen shall not come (Isaiah 52:1; comp.

These versions must have used a different punctuation from that of the Masoretic text - morishehem for morashehom (comp. Numbers 24:18, 19). The Hebrew pronoun is ambiguous, and "their possessions" may mean either those that the Jews themselves had lost, or those of the Edomites. But nothing is said of Israel being carried away captive and losing its country; and, though the prophet may have looked forward to such a catastrophe and to a future restoration, this is not the subject here. The possessions referred to are those of the enemy represented by the Edomites, and those which the Jews had lost since the days of David and Solomon; and "the house of Jacob" signifies, not merely the earthly kingdom of Judah, but "the people of God, who are eventually to obtain the dominion of the world" (Keil); Mark 16:15.Parallel Commentaries ...
