The Ultimate Promise
Commentators unanimously agree that the 'good word' or 'good thing' God promises to fulfill is the coming of the Messiah. They see this verse as a direct reference to an earlier prophecy in Jeremiah 23:5-6 about the 'Branch of Righteousness.' This isn't just any promise; scholars like John Gill suggest it can be seen as the 'best word,' the ultimate promise of salvation through Jesus Christ.
