And many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day, and shall be my people: and I will dwell in the midst of thee, and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto thee.
Zechariah 2:11 — KJV
Shall be joined. Compare Isa. 14:1; Micah 4:2. God purposed that men from all nations, observing the prosperity of Israel and the advantages of serving the true God, would thereby be led to join themselves to the Lord (see pp. 28, 29). But Israel after the Exile, as had Israel before the Exile, refused to heed the light sent from Heaven. God has now commissioned the Christian church to preach the gospel in all the world, so that “many” from all lands may believe and be saved (see Matt. 24:14; 28:19, 20; Mark 16:15, 16; Acts 1:8; Rev. 14:6-12).
