Compare Jeremiah 17:13; Luke 10:20; Revelation 3:5, as to those spiritually Israelites; John 1:47, and those not so. Literally fulfilled (Ezra 2:59, Ezra 2:62; compare Nehemiah 7:5; Psalms 69:28).
neither . . . enter . . . land--They shall not so much as be allowed to come back at all to their country.
