Dictionary of Biblical Words
:
The
metropolis of the Jews, now no longer an earthly center, but after the departure of
all
believers destined again to rise in importance, and at the return of the
Lord
to the
Mount
of Olives to be (after
judgment
of His enemies) restored to far more than its former splendor. A full description of its future
glory
will be found in
Ezekiel
. It will then be the metropolis of the whole
earth
; and will be governed by a
prince
of the
house
of
Judah
, the representative on earth of the King of the Jews. It is evident
this
ruler is not
Christ
in
person
,
for
he will
have
to
offer
a
sin
-
offering
for himself (
Ezek. 45:22
22
And upon that day shall the prince prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bullock for a sin offering. (Ezekiel 45:22)
). In Isa. 62, we find that the land of Judah and
city
of
Jerusalem
will be “married” to
Jehovah
.
