God says that He knows that their nation has been forsaken and hated. This included His declaration of Him divorcing them as the Wife of Jehovah. After many attempts to reach Israel for her sins through the prophets, Israel still failed to return to God, her husband in obedience. Therefore, God was forced to finally issue the bill of divorcement and to divorce His wife, Israel. This was their former condition and now He declares that their later condition after the national regeneration of the nation at the end of the Tribulation will be continual blessings. God promises that “I will make thee an eternal excellency” into something that is the total opposite of the punishment and divorce due to your past adultery and experiences. Zion will be eternally exalted, majestic, and glorious which will be a source of joy for all the generations of people who live in it. This joy and exalted status characterizes the marvelous way God will transform His people and His holy city after the spiritual national regeneration of the nation. The length of time the restoration of their relationship to the Lord will be eternal or forever. It will never end. This will commence with the Messianic age and flow into the Eternal Order following the Kingdom Age (Revelation 21:1–22:5). Zion’s transformation from the little despised nation will give way to one of strength among the world’s Gentile nations. During the Messianic Kingdom the nations and their rulers will give Jerusalem their strength and vital substance, as a mother or nurse gives a child milk from her breasts.
