“For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.”
The teaching of Zion's children—'All your children shall be taught by Yahweh, and great shall be the prosperity of your children. In righteousness you shall be established; you shall be far from oppression, for you will not fear; and from terror, for it will not come near you'—promises that all Zion's children will receive divine instruction. The reference to God as teacher suggests spiritual formation accompanying political restoration. The promise of righteousness, freedom from oppression and terror, establishes that restoration includes security. This verse combines spiritual formation with material security.
