“Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month.”
The exhortation to the sons of Zion to rejoice in the LORD their God and the promise of rain in the right measure indicates the restoration of the conditions for agriculture and the renewal of covenant blessing. The rain indicates God's direct provision of the conditions necessary for agricultural flourishing. This verse promises that the judgment has been reversed and blessing restored.
