It points to a period when God's promises to Israel and Judah will be realized. The context of <a href="/jeremiah/33.htm">Jeremiah 33</a> is a prophecy of restoration and hope given during a time of despair for the Israelites, as they faced the Babylonian exile.<p><b>Judah will be saved</b><br>The salvation of Judah signifies both physical deliverance from enemies and spiritual redemption. Historically, Judah faced numerous threats from surrounding nations, and this promise reassures them of God's protection and ultimate victory. This salvation is also seen as a type of the greater salvation brought by Jesus Christ, who is from the tribe of Judah.<p><b>and Jerusalem will dwell securely</b><br>Jerusalem, the city of God, represents the center of worship and the heart of the Jewish nation. The promise of security implies peace and stability, contrasting with the city's history of sieges and destruction. This security is often interpreted as both a literal peace for the city and a spiritual peace found in Christ, who is the Prince of Peace.<p><b>and this is the name by which it will be called: The LORD Our Righteousness</b><br>This name, "The LORD Our Righteousness," is significant as it attributes righteousness to God, who imparts it to His people. It is a prophetic reference to the coming Messiah, Jesus Christ, who embodies God's righteousness and imparts it to believers. This name echoes <a href="/jeremiah/23-6.htm">Jeremiah 23:6</a>, where the Messiah is directly called "The LORD Our Righteousness," highlighting the connection between the prophecy and its fulfillment in Christ.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/judah.htm">Judah</a></b><br>The southern kingdom of Israel, representing the remnant of God's people who are promised salvation and restoration.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/j/jerusalem.htm">Jerusalem</a></b><br>The capital city of Judah, symbolizing the center of worship and God's presence among His people.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_lord_our_righteousness.htm">The LORD Our Righteousness</a></b><br>A prophetic name for the Messiah, indicating that righteousness comes from the Lord and is imputed to His people.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/t/the_promise_of_salvation.htm">The Promise of Salvation</a></b><br>God's promise to save Judah and Jerusalem is a reminder of His faithfulness to His covenant people.

Believers today can find true security in Christ, regardless of external circumstances.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/r/righteousness_from_the_lord.htm">Righteousness from the LORD</a></b><br>The name "The LORD Our Righteousness" emphasizes that true righteousness is not achieved by human effort but is a gift from God through faith in Jesus Christ. This should encourage believers to rely on God's grace rather than their own works.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/m/messianic_fulfillment.htm">Messianic Fulfillment</a></b><br>This verse points to the coming of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, who embodies the righteousness of God.

There the title, "The Lord our Righteousness," is given to the future King, and the passage has accordingly been used as a proof of the full divinity of the Christ, who is that King. Here it is given to the city, and, so given, can only mean that that name will be, as it were, the motto and watchword of her being. She will be a city marked by a righteousness which will be the gift of Jehovah; He will inscribe that name on her banners, and. grave it on her portals. It is obvious that this throws light on the meaning of the title as applied to the King.<p><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/jeremiah/33.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 16.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">Wherewith she shall be called;</span> viz.
