Depart ye, go ye out from thence Out of Babylon into your own land, that there I may meet with you, and bless you, and perform those further and greater things for you which I have promised to do there. And this invitation was the more necessary, because God foresaw that a great number of the Jews would, upon worldly considerations, continue in those foreign countries in which they were settled, and would be very backward to return to the Holy Land. Touch no unclean thing Carry not along with you any of their superstitions or idolatries. Be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the Lord And especially you priests and Levites, who minister in holy things, and carry the holy vessels of the temple, keep yourselves from all pollution. Ye shall not go out by flight But securely, and in triumph, being conducted by your great captain, the Lord of hosts. The God of Israel will be your rereward So that none shall be able either to oppose you in your march, or to fall upon you in the rear.
