Therefore don`t you be afraid, O Jacob my servant, says Yahweh; neither be dismayed, Israel: for, behold, I will save you from afar, and your seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid.

A Promise to Calm Your Fears

Commentators emphasize that God's command, "Fear not," is a direct and powerful reassurance for His people. This promise is not limited by circumstances, as God explicitly states He will save "from afar," overcoming any distance or obstacle. Scholars like John Calvin note that such exhortations are given to stir our often-hesitant hearts to trust in God's certain and beautiful promises (Charles Spurgeon).
