Throughout the Bible, the concept of a remnant is crucial, symbolizing God's faithfulness to preserve a portion of His people despite widespread judgment or calamity. This remnant is often seen as a beacon of hope and a testament to God's enduring covenant with Israel. In the context of 2 Kings, the remnant represents those who remain faithful and are preserved by God's grace, even as the Assyrian threat looms large.<p><b>will go forth</b><br />The phrase "will go forth" suggests movement and action, indicating that the remnant will not only survive but will also emerge with purpose and direction. This movement is not just physical but also spiritual, as the remnant is called to continue God's work and uphold His commandments. Historically, this reflects the return of the exiles and the rebuilding of Jerusalem, a theme that resonates with the hope of restoration and renewal.<p><b>from Jerusalem</b><br />Jerusalem, the city of David, holds profound significance as the spiritual and political center of Israel. It is the place where God chose to establish His name and where the temple stood as a symbol of His presence among His people. The mention of Jerusalem underscores the idea that God's promises and His covenant are centered on this holy city. Despite the threats and destruction, Jerusalem remains the focal point of God's redemptive plan.<p><b>and survivors</b><br />The word "survivors" in Hebrew is "פְּלֵיטָה" (peleitah), which conveys the idea of escape or deliverance. This term emphasizes God's protective hand over His people, ensuring that even in the face of overwhelming odds, there will be those who endure. Theologically, it speaks to God's sovereignty and His ability to save, reinforcing the message that deliverance is not by human might but by divine intervention.<p><b>from Mount Zion</b><br />Mount Zion is often used interchangeably with Jerusalem, but it carries additional connotations of spiritual significance. It is the site of the temple and represents God's dwelling place among His people. The reference to Mount Zion highlights the sacredness of the location and the divine promise that God's presence will not depart from His chosen place. It serves as a reminder of the spiritual heritage and the hope of future glory.<p><b>The zeal of the LORD of Hosts</b><br />The "zeal" of the LORD, or "קִנְאַת יְהוָה" (qin'at Yahweh), reflects God's passionate commitment to His purposes and His people. This zeal is not a mere emotional response but a determined and righteous action to fulfill His promises. The title "LORD of Hosts" emphasizes God's supreme authority over all heavenly and earthly armies, underscoring His power to accomplish His will. It reassures the faithful that God's plans are unstoppable and that His covenant will be upheld.<p><b>will accomplish this</b><br />The phrase "will accomplish this" speaks to the certainty and effectiveness of God's actions. It is a declaration that what God has purposed, He will bring to pass. This assurance is a source of comfort and encouragement, affirming that despite human frailty and external threats, God's word is unfailing. It invites believers to trust in His sovereignty and to rest in the knowledge that His plans for His people are good and will ultimately prevail.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/2_kings/19.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(31)<span class= "bld">A remnant.</span>--Isaiah's favourite doctrine of the remnant (<a href="/context/isaiah/4-2.htm" title="In that day shall the branch of the LORD be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel.">Isaiah 4:2-3</a>; <a href="/context/isaiah/10-20.htm" title="And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stay on him that smote them; but shall stay on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.">Isaiah 10:20-21</a>).<p><span class= "bld">They that escape.</span>--<span class= "ital">A survival.</span><p><span class= "bld">Out of Jerusalem.</span>--The ravaged land was to be newly stocked from thence.<p><span class= "bld">The zeal</span> (jealousy) <span class= "bld">of the Lord of hosts shall do this.</span>--Another of the phrases of Isaiah.
