You shall bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of your inheritance, The place, Yahweh, which you have made for yourself to dwell in; The sanctuary, Lord, which your hands have established.

A Secure and Permanent Home

This verse is a forward-looking promise that God would not just rescue Israel, but bring them to a permanent home. Commentators explain that the word "plant" signifies a firm and secure settlement in the "mountain of thine inheritance" (the Promised Land). This was a declaration that God's plan included not just deliverance, but a lasting, stable future for His people in a place He had chosen for them.
