“But they shall serve the Lord their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them.”
The promise that Israel shall serve the LORD their God and David their king reconnects restoration to both covenant law and Davidic monarchy. The mention of David projects future renewal of Davidic rule, later interpreted messianically in Christian tradition. This grounds restoration in Israel's historical relationship with God.
