Chapter 10

V.1 Showers of blessing shall descend on Israel in the millennium.

V.2-3 What good were all those idols?

V.6 God will give the Jews great strength and all the believers shall be gathered in Israel.

V.7-12 The scattered ten tribes shall be gathered from all over the world.

Chapter 11 is quite a contrast to chapter 10.

V.1-5 Here the people of Israel are under the control of the Gentiles. Their own leaders (their shepherds, scribes, elders, priests) did not pity them, so the Lord has pity on them.

V.12-13 Can you see how similar this is to Matthew 27:9-10⁹Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value; ¹⁰And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me. (Matthew 27:9‑10)? Their Messiah is valued at thirty pieces of silver.

V.7, 10, 14 Refer to Judah and Israel, for so long divided into two kingdoms.

V.15-17 The true Shepherd (Christ) having been refused, the Lord speaks here of the Antichrist. All these Scriptures pass over our day of grace completely.
