ירמיהו, פרק ל״ב, פסוק מ״א

Even as the destruction of the land and the dark reality of exile draw near, a promise of absolute redemption remains. The Israelites are assured that they will eventually return to their land and to God. While past events saw God remove the people from His presence out of anger, the future holds a profound shift toward favor and love. God will find true joy in bringing goodness to His people [ביאור שטיינזלץ, מצודת דוד, אברבנאל].

The promise to establish the nation in the land goes beyond mere sincerity; it is a guarantee of ultimate stability and endurance. Throughout their earlier history, the Israelites never fully took root in their homeland, which left them vulnerable to exile. In contrast, the future redemption will create a permanent settlement. The people will be planted deeply and securely, never to be uprooted again [אברבנאל, מצודת דוד]. God will bring about this eternal restoration with great love [מצודת דוד].

Because this vision guarantees a permanent home without the possibility of future exile, it cannot refer to the historical return that followed the Babylonian exile. The eternal security promised here was not realized during the era of the Second Temple. Instead, this prophecy points directly to the final, future redemption and the ultimate gathering of the exiles [אברבנאל].
