The Hebrew root for "descendants" is "zera," which often refers to seed or offspring, symbolizing continuity and the fulfillment of God's promises. Historically, this reflects the survival and restoration of Israel despite their disobedience, showcasing God's grace and sovereign plan. The mention of "Jacob" ties back to the patriarch whose name was changed to Israel, representing the entire nation and God's enduring relationship with His chosen people.<p><b>and heirs of My mountains from Judah</b><br />The term "heirs" signifies those who will inherit God's promises, specifically the blessings associated with His "mountains," which can symbolize stability, divine presence, and blessing. The Hebrew word for "heirs" is "yarash," meaning to possess or inherit. "Judah" refers to the southern kingdom, known for its Davidic lineage and messianic promise. This phrase underscores the idea that God's promises are not just for the past but are actively being fulfilled through His chosen people, with a particular focus on the tribe of Judah, from which the Messiah would come.<p><b>My chosen ones will possess it</b><br />"Chosen ones" refers to those selected by God for a special purpose, highlighting the theme of divine election. The Hebrew word "bachar" means to choose or select, indicating God's sovereign choice in fulfilling His purposes. This phrase reassures the faithful that God's promises are secure and that His chosen people will indeed inherit the blessings He has prepared. It reflects the assurance of God's plan for His people, emphasizing that His promises are irrevocable and will be realized in His perfect timing.<p><b>and My servants will dwell there</b><br />The term "servants" denotes those who are devoted to God, serving Him faithfully. The Hebrew word "ebed" implies a relationship of service and loyalty. "Dwell" suggests a permanent, secure habitation, indicating a place of peace and rest. This phrase promises a future where God's faithful servants will live in His presence, enjoying the fulfillment of His promises. It paints a picture of hope and restoration, where God's people are not only restored to their land but also to a right relationship with Him, living under His protection and blessing.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/isaiah/65.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(9) I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob <span class= "bld">. . .</span>--Jacob (<span class= "ital">i.e., </span>Israel) and Judah are used to represent respectively the remnants of the two kingdoms that had been carried into captivity.<p><span class= "bld">My mountains.</span>--One of Isaiah's characteristic phrases (comp. <a href="/isaiah/14-25.htm" title="That I will break the Assyrian in my land, and on my mountains tread him under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulders.">Isaiah 14:25</a>; <a href="/isaiah/29-11.htm" title="And the vision of all is become to you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray you: and he said, I cannot; for it is sealed:">Isaiah 29:11</a>; <a href="/context/ezekiel/6-2.htm" title="Son of man, set your face toward the mountains of Israel, and prophesy against them,">Ezekiel 6:2-3</a>.

The whole of Palestine is little more than a cluster of mountains. The cluster may be divided into three groups: <p><span class="note_emph">(1)</span> The mountains of Galilee, extending from Hermon to Tabor, separated from the next group by the plain of Esdraelon; <p><span class="note_emph">(2)</span> the mountains of Samaria and Judaea, extending from Carmel and Gilbea to the plateau of Mature above Hebron, which is 3600 feet above the sea; <p><span class="note_emph">(3)</span> the mountains of the trans-Jordanic region, including those of Bashan, Gilead, Moab, and Edom, separated from the two other groups by the Jordan valley. The highest elevation attained is that of Hermon (9400 feet); other minor heights are Jebel Jurmuk, in Galilee, 4000 feet; Safed, also in Galilee, 2775 feet; Ebal and Gerizim, in Samaria, 2700 feet; Sinjil, 2685; Neby Samwill, 2650; and the Mount of Olives, 2724 feet. The plateau of Mature reaches a height of 3600 feet. The only Palestinian plains are those of Esdraelon, Sharon, and the Ghor, or Jordan valley. Thus the land may well be spoken of as "my mountains." <span class="cmt_word">Mine elect</span> (comp. ch. 43:20; 45:4).
