Jeremiah and Amos, as well as Isaiah, Ezekiel, and others, were told to write of a coming day when the chosen people of God would return from being scattered among the nations to live once again in their national homeland of Israel. Amos said when that happens, they will never be uprooted from their land again.
Jeremiah 23:7-8 KJV – “Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that they shall no more say, The Lord liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt; But, The Lord liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.”
Amos 9:14-15 KJV – “And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them. And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of their land which I have given them, saith the Lord thy God.”
