Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion!I wonder which salvation is being talked about here? This was written by David, so it can't be just a normal, physical salvation. There were no occupying forces in Israel at the time. So, what is in/on Zion that David is looking for?
When God restores His captive people,
Let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.
Is he speaking to future peoples and times, when they would be enslaved? Or is he speaking of the spiritual, and the salvation of people's souls by Jesus? If so, why does he only refer to Israel, rather than all peoples? Does he too have an incomplete view of who Jesus would come to save?
