save my people from . . . east . . . west--that is, from every region (compare Psalms 50:1; the "West" is literally, "the going down of the sun") to which they are scattered; they are now found especially in countries west of Jerusalem. The dispersion under Nebuchadnezzar was only to the east, namely, to Babylonia. The restoration, including a spiritual return to God (Zechariah 8:8), here foretold, must therefore be still future (Isaiah 11:11-12; Isaiah 43:5-6; Ezekiel 37:21; Amos 9:14-15; also Zechariah 13:9; Jeremiah 30:22; Jeremiah 31:1, Jeremiah 31:33).
