"And 1 will make them one nation in tho land upon the mountains of Israel; and David, My ser vant, shull lie king over them; and the na tions shall know that I, the Lord, do sanctify Israel, when My siiiu-tuary shall be iu tlx midst of them for evermore." (Isa, ix.; Jer. iii.. 17; Kzek. xxxvii., 21-a.H.) With such a kingdom In-fore him, and, like Aliiahum. lH.lieving w hat W.sl lias promise.)
