I will even gather you , Compare Jeremiah 31:10 . Reference to Pentateuch, (Deuteronomy 30:3 ). App-92 .
people = peoples.
the land of Israel. Here, "the land", in Hebrew is 'admath (adamah) = the soil of Israel, This expression occurs seventeen times in Ezekiel (Ezekiel 11:17 ; Ezekiel 12:12 Eze 19:22 ; Ezekiel 13:9 ; Ezekiel 18:2 ; Ezekiel 20:38 , Ezekiel 20:42 ; Ezekiel 21:3 (Hebrew - Ezekiel 11:8 ); Ezekiel 25:3 , Ezekiel 25:6 ; Ezekiel 33:24 ; Ezekiel 36:6 ; Ezekiel 37:1 Ezekiel 37:2 ; Ezekiel 38:18 , Ezekiel 38:19 ; "unto the land" Ezekiel 7:2 ; Ezekiel 21:3 (Hebrew. Ezekiel 11:8 ). The three occurrences of the expres sion, with eretz instead of'admath, are thus safeguarded by the Massorah: viz. Ezekiel 27:17 ; Ezekiel 40:2 , Ezekiel 47:18 . (See Ginsburg's Massorah, vol. i, p. 107, 1100) and App-93 .
