24:5“I, the Lord, the God of Israel, say: ‘The exiles whom I sent away from here to the land of Babylon4 are like those good figs. I consider them to be good. 24:6I will look after their welfare5 and will restore them to this land. There I will build them up and will not tear them down. I will plant them firmly in the land6 and will not uproot them.7
Footnotes
- 4 Heb “the land of the Chaldeans.” See the study note on .
- 5 Heb “I will set my eyes upon them for good.” For the nuance of “good” see Jer 21:10; Amos 9:4 (in these cases the opposite of harm; see 375 טוֹבָה 1).
- 6 The words “There” and “firmly in the land” are not in the text but are implicit from the connection and the metaphor. They are supplied in the translation for clarity.
- 7 For these terms see Jer 1:10.
