Neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from out of the land which I have appointed for your fathers; so that they will take heed to do all that I have commanded them, according to the whole law and the statutes and the ordinances by the hand of Moses.
I will never again force Israel to leave the land that I gave to your ancestors, as long as they are careful to obey everything I have commanded them through Moses—all the laws, rules, and instructions.
God is promising that Israel can stay in their homeland permanently if they faithfully follow all His commands given through Moses.
📚 Historical Context
This promise was given during the reign of King Manasseh of Judah, who had initially led the people into terrible idolatry and evil practices. After being humbled by God through captivity in Babylon, Manasseh repented and tried to restore proper worship. God's promise here refers back to previous times when Israel was exiled or displaced due to their disobedience.
