“And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.”
The promise that from Jacob will come offspring and from Judah possessors of mountains, and elect will possess the inheritance, establishes that the covenant promises are renewed in a reduced but genuine remnant. The geographic language—mountains, Judah—reiterates land-promise. The identification of the elect as inheritors establishes that the saved are those chosen through their faithfulness. The assertion that lineage continues through offspring indicates that covenant is perpetuated generationally. This verse promises that despite judgment, covenant relationship continues through the faithful remnant.
